In this episode of “I have a Trebuchet“ I start the process of tuning and improving the machine to take it from “TV works“ to “Really works“. And of course we throw some stuff! Pumpkins, GoPros, Bowling balls and.... well, watch it and find out! I was commissioned by Xbox to make and operate a trebuchet for a film celebrating the launch of their new game Age of Empires IV and it is now mine! What???? Simple really, they wanted one, I built it, they paid me and then needed to dispose of it after the film; I simply helped with all stages of the here it is and Nearly ready for flinging. I had to make some design choices for the original film that I would not have made if I was just building it for myself so I have to go back and make those changes before I can really start to use it.
