Folks,
Does anyone have any recommendations for how to build a functioning
trebuchet that is minifig scale? I have tried it several times and it
always comes out too large. The other issue I have is making a trigger that
doesn’t snag when it goes off. Any suggestions would be greatky
appreciated. Christopher Templin

James Brink built a minifig scale Crusader Trebuchet several years ago:

Ben,
Thanks for the info, The trebuchet I built is much bigger than the one that you
sent me a link to. I had to make it bigger to get enough weight to toss a 2x2
brick more than three feet. I think I can modify it with some ideas I got from
the links and will try to put it up on my brickshelf page soon. Thanks again.
