New Punkin-Chunker
Broke!
But it will be repaired by next October!
Would you believe that our new
Monster Trebuchet broke on the second test fire. There were but a couple of slight flaws in our design but the result
was a chain reaction of events that happened very, very fast and broke one of the vertical support beams. This means
that we will have to go all the way back to square one and start over, but this time with the experience of seeing it come
apart. Now we know what to do and we will have plenty of time to perfect our "chunker" before the 2012 "punkin"
season opens.
