-- "We ordered the mini trebuchet kit back in December. Thank you for making such a nice kit. My son built this (with a little help from dad) for a science fair project. He won first place for his 7th grade class and will be competing in a larger science fair at Cleveland State University this week. He basically experimented with seeing how increasing counterweight had on the distance the bouncy ball flew. It was fun to experiment with and was definitely a novel project at the science fair; many people did not even know what a trebuchet was until they saw [his] model. I think it's a great model for physics class, too. Thanks again for your help sending it!" -- “Awesome! The Oakland Ballistics trebuchet was the highlight of our Catapults camp. Kids loved building them and parents were impressed by the knowledge their kids gained. I highly recommend these projects-the directions are clear and easy to follow; the materials are durable and work well; and it’s a great value for the price. We’ll be using these projects again and again in our science summer camps. Thanks” |
