Build
your own working model medieval trebuchet with TrebuchetStore.com
detailed, easy to follow plans and instructions. When built, this beautiful
Stirling Trebuchet stands over 32 inches tall in
the fired position and will throw a scale projectile up to 80 feet.
Engineered with an open counterweight cabinet,
the Stirling trebuchet allows you to vary the weight for range and trajectory
adjustment. Fire with an empty counterweight for indoor use, or add weight
(nuts, bolts, scrap lead, iron or steel, sand, or small rocks) for increased
range.
Uses common, inexpensive and easy to find building materials, available
at your local hardware store or home center. Basic woodworking skills and
tools are required, but the straight forward design requires no complicated
layout or joinery. Perfect for demonstrating medieval warfare and technology
and the physics of leverage and projectile motion.
This siege engine plans package includes a complete shopping list of
materials, measured drawings of all parts, step-by-step assembly
drawings and instructions, as well as firing and tuning instructions. |
