Introduction: Mini Trebuchet

This is an instruction to crate a mini trebuchet

Supplies

Supplies: 10 Popsicle sticks, 12 elastic bands, hot gun glue sticks, 1 spoon

Step 1:

Create a triangle using 3 popsicle sticks and use hot glue at the corners

Step 2:

Glue 2 popsicle sticks to 2 corners of the triangle

Glue the other triangle to the same popsicle sticks that stick out of the first triangle to create something that looks like a triangular prism

Step 3:

Take 2 popsicle sticks and tie 12 rubber bands in a cross so the trebuchet will have a strong launch.
This one doesn’t have 12 because it was a prototype, but tie 12

Step 4:

Glue the popsicle stick to the final corner but under the triangle

Step 5:

Snap the spoon so only the top part and a little bit are left. Glue the spoon to the top of the popsicle stick that is used for launch
