Thats pretty cool!!
Before I found this site I used to build trebuchets and smash things with
them. Lots of fun and also makes your brain work to. The best one I built
could sling a #5 ball lead sinker about 200 feet or so. And when it came
down could break 1/2" ply pretty nicely!!!. And it was only 30" tall.
I'v also built a army of other catapults like Onagers, Mangonels, &
Ballistas.

Before I got into RC Tank Combat I was medieval too.  I like on a golf course so I and a Trebutche about 7' tall to return lost golf balls at the end of the day.  One word of caution, wear a hard hat in case the ball goes up the first couple of shots!
