  • good to see a new ballista video!!! u should see mine!!! u should use woden arms instead of pvc, use a ratchet systen and a trigger!! also ur basic frame is to long and thin!!! mine can shoot 250 meters aka 800 ft. good job though ur on the right track

  • @HPwoody Hey thanx, the arms are actually wooden. I was looking into a trigger and a ratchet, but I couldn't find a shim block trigger or the metal modulouses to buy on the internet, I was trying to make it as historically correct as possible (the slide and all). I tried to make a shim trigger out of wood, but it was under to much tension and broke, If you know of any idea or way to create/get it please let me know.

    Also if you know of a design for good wooden arms, what, and made of what size?

  • Sweet! that got some distance

  • If you saw those green trees beyond my halfpipe. it has gotten past that.

    By the way like my new puppy he is a golden Retreiver and is about 7 months old.

  • press 6 for firing part and press 9 for doggy :P

  • @13RuffRyder WO-AAT??? Lol, damn that's a nice looking backyard. I got fooled by the neighbor's playground set and what I thought was a park garbage bin.

    I wish I had a place that big to test out dangerous contraptions...

  • @kovona park? it looks like his back yard lol

  • it would go more far if you mounted a normal bow on it

  • RUN forrest Run

  • why did you run for the stick? you got a dog for that

  • Pretty sweet dude, but I can't believe you fired this in a public park, that's just not safe. Did anyone call the cops on you?

  • I hope you are imprest

  • it was not a twisted rope - wyh americans says rope's? I live in a old roman city and on the walls stand's its done with Horse muscles
