We had a catapult design that we tested today... didn't work too well. The numbers we ran made it look like it should work, but it didn't. What it ended up being was a lot of fun (we tested with bricks, water jugs, and soda cans), but it just didn't accelerate fast enough to throw the ball very far. Unfortunately, the testing eventually destroyed the catapult. So, we are now behind, I think. Back to "square two" as a team member termed it.
