  • Technically, it's not a trebuchet because it's not using weight and gravity. But holy crap that was awesome!!!

  • first a mucel car, then a mazda then a Corvette. WTF rich kids.

  • now into a hoop

  • Holy shit! That's freaking awesome.

  • is the one in the middle a boxer?

  • now make a hoop with it :D

  • What did you use for the spring? I am well familiar with the making of a traditional trebuchet, but it seems much more efficient to use a spring, I just wouldn't know where to buy one that works good or how to attach it. Any suggestions?

  • Wow that was far. Backspin makes it look like it's flying a longer distance though

  • By any chance can you give me the design for this? I have a school project to do. please email me at fish.can.fly@hotmail.com
