    Thank you for this! I have to build one for my physics lab and I didn't even know where to begin! I'll definitely be checking out that website, you're a life saver!

    I’m stuck in quarantine and I needed something to do so I built this and it is amazing thank you

    Our young men’s group made it! Will post an update when we shoot it. Gotta do the sling and it’s ready to fire!

    use a chain link fence post. You'll need to use a 2x6 for the arm as well. That should fix your bending problem
    Nice trebuchet :-)

    this is awesome! We built a trebuchet as well but I like how you actually went into detail and explained the math of it and more of the physics behind how they work. We went full caveman and just showed us throwing stuff with it lol.

      Yours looks really authentic! I should have thrown fruits and vegetables with mine too, that's a good idea

    I'm planning to make a trebuchet for my AP Physics final project and this was the perfect video. Can you explain why the rod bent and how to make sure that doesn't happen? Thanks

    • @Zaplethal
      @Zaplethal  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      A larger metal rod (preferably something other than mild) and the blocks I used leading from the vertical frame to the lever need to be screwed together and without spacing between them so that they lay as one solid piece between the vertical frame and lever, not allowing the rod to bend.

    I've built ALL kinds of stuff... but never a trébuchet. I've made potato cannons, rc airplanes from scratch, 3D printed quadcipters, etc... never even thought of this! XD nice job homie

      TheBulletDealer wow, maybe you should do building on your channel too! but thank you very much

    For maximum range, make the rope the same legnth as the rod

    Hello, nice trebuchet! Enjoyed watching three trebuchet's launching 1 gallon water filled milk jugs and water bottles today at the local renaissance festival. One warning is using construction screws and deck screws to hold your lumber together is a big NO NO! Neither type of screw is able to safely withstand the torsion and sheer pressures being produced. Use only structural screws to build with as they are made to withstand such loads safely. You will have to search for the structural screws yourself as most store employees have no idea that there is a difference. If they are structural screws they will say so on the package, just make sure and be safe. Hope that helps.

    You have successfully confused Ojichan. Would a water balloon survive the launch until it hits the ground?

    • @Zaplethal
      @Zaplethal  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Marsha Adams I would assume that it could launch a water balloon 😊

    Hey just wondering how long is the short arm and the long arm?

    • @Zaplethal
      @Zaplethal  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Discoboy I made my short arm 1.75' and long arm 6.25'

    • @discoboy1995
      @discoboy1995 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also where are the holes on each arm? Sorry for all the question btw doing a school project

    • @Zaplethal
      @Zaplethal  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Due to the wood i was working with i placed the holes about .5 inches form the end of the 2X4s.
