Re: Cushioning Your Hard Stop

we started with 1/8 flat stock the goes along the length of the catapult that is covered in pipe insulation. when we were driving and shooting it on Monday the whole piece snapped of at both ends. this lasted the entire scrimmage event and 4 full days of practice, but we switched to a solid aluminum tube that it goes in the same thing.
