Trebuchet!

Jun 12, 2004 16:01

I met with Igor, aka my friend Bernie, who a very nice complete woodworking shop. We went over the 3 foot trebuchet, tossing some foodstuffs, and have now decided that what the world needs is one more WMD. Preliminary design for a 6 foot float-arm trebuchet have been settled. We'll begin the mad rocket scientist* work when we get around to it.

* Bernie started working at Johnson Space Center three months after they opened the gates. He was one of the people who designed the orbits for the Apollo missions. He's been retired for almost 10 years, but he's definitely a rocket scientist, too.
