This is awesome, thank you for not only making this model but also making a high quality video explaining how it works and how to assemble it

Simple other stuff to consider: adding staking holes to the base so you can use tent stakes to hold the base to the ground to prevent loss of energy to moving the machine instead of the projectile. try wheels on the base instead, as for trebuchets we've shown that this allows for a longer throw, but this may not hold true for a catapult, and would be an experiment.

This is seriously the coolest thing I've ever printed!
Now I need to print enough for a fun siege

Absolutely love this print, thank you for making it. I have the creality K1, was able to print this in 3 separate plates. The boulder failed so still need to print it again. My K1 is a prick for sticking to build plates with PETG. Gotta use a lot of glue stick and then sometimes I still get pitting. Next time around for the boulder i'll use support around it, its purely the K1's fault as it likes to get excited and go faster near the end of prints, this led to the boulder becoming unstuck from the build plate.

Great design. Printed at 125% and wow does it have some power for just a toy

This is def in my top 3 coolest functional prints of all time. My son and I love it and I cannot wait to try to print the 210%. I wish i had the talent to design stuff like this, i just know how to print it!

This was so cool. I actually printed 3 of them. One at 100% one at 50% and one at 190% which is the biggest my k1c can handle. All three work incredibly well. I printed it all in pla except for the springs. 25% infil on everything except for the arm which i printed with 50%. For the leaf springs and stop i printed them in petg with no infil but like 20 wall loops (enough so they were solid wall)

Printed great on my 2 modded Klipper Creality printers. Great design!

[mikeytom]

Printed it in my P1S. Man this thing is serious! I am making my second now to vs my daughter in cup challenge.

Some recommendations. Holes or something to place in ground maybe streak holds or something we can print and attach. Also the video was amazing great detail love it. The assembly was a little fast and when you move your hand in front of the model I cannot see it. Besides that I just got this printer 3 days ago and it's wild I can print amazing things like this!! Thank YOU!
