BEST TREBUCHET DESIGN

Показать описание
This is a MERLIN trebuchet. Using a 10 kg (22 lb) counterweight, we were able to launch a golf ball 330 feet. The next design probably launched 100 feet max. If you have to make a trebuchet for your crappy high school physics class and you also have a good 10 hours of free time to spare, make yourself a MERLIN trebuchet. You won’t regret it.

I love how you get all the leverage from the cord being far out and at the end you get the snap when it ends right next to the fulcrum. Fantastic!!

А классический требушет стреляет не так эффективно. То ли предки были тупыми, то ли до нас дошли неправильные изображения, поясняющие принцип действия...
