With this style of trebuchet you need wheels so it won't tip and it will also project the object further.

Yea, that's what we did in the end. If you look near the end of the video, you'll see us wheeling it back inside.

Just about the most fucking awesome thing ever! Best class alive. Didn't learn shit but got to fling balls with a trebuchet. Can it get any better than that? I think not
