I made a FAT treb last year... DYI called me out and said I wouldn't enjoy it... He was right. 100lbs of counterweight later and I finally through a water bottle about 100yds. Granted it probably wasn't tuned perfectly, I had a very nice angle adjustable release pin and everything on it.

98% finished (I did finish it, I just currently have any of those pics)

It was a fun project - but If it doesn't make a lot of noise - I'm suspicious...

I'm sure that if they had access to PVC pipes in the middle ages, the trebuchet would have never been developed :D

@Gun Freak,

Haha awesome, is that a fruit sticker from a kiwi? It's probably really obvious that it is but I've never heard of "southern kiwi" and we called it kiwi fruit so we don't mix the fruit up with our national bird :D

90% chance that a poor, New Zealand university student living on 2 minute noodles and baked beans picked that particular fruit :wink:
