The moment you’ve all been waiting for has arrived. The machine is finished and we’re ready to hurt ourselves – I mean hurl stuff. Do we break anything? Does the machine fall apart? Watch and find out!
Episode 5 is now available! In our penultimate (and longest) episode, we attach the throwing arm to the base, and then finish the trigger mechanism. This episode features numerous injuries, less Benny Hill, and some awesome hats. Enjoy.

In episode four the weather takes a turn for the worse, and we’re forced inside to finish building the counter-weight bucket. After lots of gluing, clamping, and waiting, the bucket finally comes together… But what about the squirrels?
Episode 3 is ready for your viewing pleasure!
In this installment, the trebuchet is nearly destroyed when Jason attempts to turn it over. Then, after a lot of high-speed screwing (uhh… yeah), we move on and build the throwing arm.
Please leave your comments below.
Welcome to episode 2. In this installment, we get down to business building the basic trebuchet frame. We spend a lot of time measuring stuff, and discover that we’re easily fooled by a tape measure.
If you are new to the site and haven’t watched episode 1 yet, please scroll down the page or click “Season 1 – The Trebuchet” under Site Navigation at the top right. There you’ll find all the episodes from season one.
NOTE: For those of you subscribed to the iTunes feed, episode 2 will be automatically delivered to you in a few hours. Sorry for the delay.
Just a quick note to let everyone know that Episode 2 is coming on Tuesday. We’re past the initial excitment of opening the box, and we really get down to business. You don’t want to miss it.
[UPDATE] Having some internet issues and am unable to upload the new episode. Should have it up tomorrow morning
