Hi JoergS- really having trouble finding any blueprints/ plans and measurements for any of your amazing designs that I am hoping to build with my son as father son shed projects.

Are they available anywhere?

Hello joergS, the video is no longer available on instructables, and I do not have access to YouTube... Is there any possibility you could repost this 'ible because it is by far the most promising on instructables for what I want... Thanks very much

In the process of making one now. Sort of a hybrid of 2 of Joerg's designs. This one and  http://youtu.be/fLPjIhqI9Ww    The only problem I had was a suitable trigger, and this one is much simpler than the other design. Since I'm a dweeb that way easier is the watchword.

I am very impressed. Also, I love your voice XD Especially when you said "..Let me show you how to load it :3~" XD But um, yes, very impressive my friend. Lately I've been looking for a carriable scorpion or ballista but to no avail..but this is just..amazing. Its like a rifle but as a huge slingshot.
