This is our trebuchet. I worked with Neil Berg, Bill Pahutski, and Mark Luke. Our objective was to build a trebuchet with limited materials and maximize our distance and accuracy. We built ours with a couple 2 by 4s, bolts and washers, duct tape, and a metal rod. The competition rules were set by Wright State University, but unfortunately the competition was cancelled due to the bad weather. We had in class contests, and we felt our trebuchet was a rousing success. To look at details about it, delve into the links below!
