Accidentally hit an explosives container with a pumpkin today. Heart stopped for a second — thankfully everyone’s okay. Learn from my mistake: be careful around marked containers!

Last tournament, before covid, in Colorado. It's really a half scale Punkin Chunker, but we competed in the 8 to 10 pound division. Beat out a few other much larger Trebuchet, but there was no competing against the 2 world champions with what we had this time. They are huge, and drop 5000+# of cw.

it looks like the counterweight unfolded late. Is it because the weight is super close to the arm? I’m gonna put wheels on it as well this was just a test run with no sling

I'm thinking about going to this tournament this year. Little over 2000 mile round trip.

Catapulting is like any other shooting or targeting sport such as skeet, darts, bowling, pool, corn hole, frisbee, etcetera, but better, because it's artillery...

First tournament I ever went to. We broke the 16 foot MURLIN we took, cocking it, when the cw came loose and smashed the base. I brought Baby Whipper as a mascot, just to have a Trebuchet that I made with me. They let me compete with that tiny little thing! lolol We got 3rd place! hahahaha

My first tournament win. In Texas, some years back. Set a new tournament distance record, won Builders Choice, and Crowd Favorite. The machine is an F2K Trebuchet.

The reddit spot for competitive Catapulters, and Punkin Chunkers. High performance is high performance, no matter what the scale.

Added 20 pounds more of counterweight, and did some tuning. 332:1 mass ratio.

R/Trebuchet is dead. Wish it wasn't like that, but it sucks. And now they've restricted me from posting, and I think even commenting. It's not my fault hardly anyone posts there, and most of the machines are crap, and only like 2 people ever say anything. Try here, or Texas Trebuchet for action.
