Laser Cut Desktop Trebuchet
Description
Build your own 75mm (3") tall desktop trebuchet.
Is your desk is missing that certain something to show of your geek cred? Do you need to launch little wooden projectiles into the next cubicle? Do you want something "sciency" to do with your kids?
You can now do all that with your very own desktop siege engine.
This kit has (almost) everything you need to build a working desktop trebuchet. You will need to provide some wood glue, a patch of cloth and a sewing needle, thread and a little ballast. Takes about 30-60 minutes to assemble.

Thanks for posting this kit! Several of us got together tonight at Hackerspace Charlotte and assembled them. For pics, check out http://www.hackerspacecharlott...
That is the coolest thing ever. Thanks. I was going to post on your Board, but my ISP seems to be blocked. :(
I recommend cutting the slings out of heavy cotton cloth. Did they fire OK?
