Re: Catapult Construction
Trebuchets ARE catapults. The difference is trebuchets are gravity powered catapults rather than torsion catapults. Also, despite the bend in the arm, the second picture appears to be a trebuchet, or a hybrid catapult.
You will probably get more out of surgical tubing then rope. Using both might be even better. also, not to discourage you, but bowling balls can break if dropped/bounced. It happened once on Mythbusters.
