CJ's Catapult

|
This is a catapult made by CJ. My thanks go to him for letting me know about it. He used the Wyvern catapult plans that I have and he made some terrific modifications including adding wheels and using paracord for the torsion. He also used a 2/3 for the swing arm which gives is a more oompf!
Here is my tutorial on how to make the Wyvern Torsion Catapult
