 | | A Knights Tale —Greg Howell
|
| | | Okay Castle junkies, If you have a chance to go and see a movie, I recommend this one. Knights Tale is witty, silly and absolutly entertaining. It has given me some great ideas for castle construction and stories also. I will soon be posting pics of (...) (23 years ago, 17-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | Ok.. I'll try to go see it... and as long as you mentioned it... Has anyone built a working Trebuchet out of lego, in Castle scale... not large scale.. I'm going to attempt it this weekend, though I'm just wondering if there are any pics out there (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | | | Theyv'e got a trebuchet in the grounds of Caerphilly Castle, down the road from my house (along with a ballista (Arbalist) and Mangonel) They fire it into the moat and the shockwave from the stones kills lots of fish I dont think you'd get a heavy (...)

| | | | | | | | | (...) Great minds think alike. I got the yen to build a castle scale trebuchet and finished it about 3 weeks ago. Took just 4 hours to build, but then took another week trying out all the variables to "optimize" the treb. One thing though, I did (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | | | | About 5 months ago we had this entire discussion. I believe it was Anthony Sava who was nice enough to provide the PBS NOVA website: Here it is… all about Trebs and the medieval period. (URL) --==Richard==-- (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | | (...) Yup, I saw that one too. Built a trebuchet about 5 or 6 months ago. It's in castle scale and throws lego bricks more than 5 feet in ours. It can be found in my War Machines section of my site. (URL) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | I agree, it was pretty good, definately worth seeing. I thought at first the modern music would make it weird, but it actually flows pretty good. Its not a historical tale, but a contemporary one. It isn't just weird like the modern mophia Romeo (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

I'm not being sexist or anything, but even I was bigger than her! Maybe if she had some huge arms (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | | Weird!!! What’s up with all the classic 70’s rock ballads in a medieval flick? The dance scene was all ‘Pulp Fiction’ and the hustle… ???...??? --==Richard==-- P.S. the only ‘witty’ part was the inclusion of Chaucer! (Canterbury Tales) (...) (23 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
