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

very interesting!
I'm somewhat pumped on building one now!

I will soon be posting pics of a building I designed having been inspired by
this flick.

Seriously, it's good, go see it. It will be the sleeper of the year. Just
don't expect to see Robin Hood Prince of Thieves, it way better than that.

This post will stand up to any trebuchet attack!

(...) 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) (24 years ago, 18-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
