  • how did you know the measurements to build this please answer i want to make one for my physics project

  • @win2rgirl those are 12' 2x4s on the vertical track and the floor is 8' 2x4s. arm is 12' 4x4 with about 4 feet between weight and wheels

  • what do you use as firing mechanism? and same question about the guide bearing system...?

  • @Luddiver firing is that collapsing board under the weights, 2x4 cut in half with a door hinge and rope at the hinge. weight track is just sealed and greased, weight bar is stainless and loose in the track. tilt track has pvc centering pipe and is sealed and greased. tilt wheels are lawnmower wheels have sealed bearings

  • needs more of an explanation .Can it shoot a load?

  • @flyingscience we did our testing throwing 10lb weights but the competition had 6 or 7lb pumpkins.
