My husband had to build this contraption for one of his engineering classes last year, but it didn't do well then, so after a lot of tinkering and changes in the engineering, he and his friend Brian made it into a pumpkin launching crazy machine! with help from Chris's brothers this trebuchet launched a pumpkin over 750 feet! They had a few problems at first, but on game day it worked like a charm. They were the only team that showed up for the Emery County Pumpkin chunkin party, but nobody could have beat them anyway. Their machine launched pumpkins farther than it had counter weight on it, and that is outrageous and crazy!!! GOOD JOB BOYS!!!
