Review: Very high quality. - This kit was amazing and super detailed, had a blast putting it together. An an xacto knife, glue and a pair of pliers (for securing the metal rings) is all that was needed. I used the knife to pop out the pieces (they aren't meant to be popped out with fingers, I noticed one reviewer did that and gave this kit an unfair review.). The pieces were cut by laser and fit together very well, almost snapping into place (glue still needed). The instructions are easy to follow even if they only consist of pictures. As will all models, look through the instructions first and fit the pieces before you glue them so you don't end up in a panic mode. Very sturdy and detailed kit.
Review: What a nice kit, You need a gluing jig - What a nice kit,You need a gluing jig, (a flat piece of sheet metal and magnets for gluing positions)But it's a nice kit once it's square in the beginning struts (patience is needed here), it pretty much goes together soundly after that,It was a bit disappointing with the projectile included but i found a big fishing sinker to do just fine,it certainly does show the power of the trebuchet though,Yes It Works .........just fine........you may want to stain it or get another kind of string ,i did like the fact there was not enough string for both the projectile and the winding mechanism,,,,,,,,but all in all it's worth the money asked,the parts are nicely cut even the gear for the ratcheting motion was precise,you just need to be careful removing the parts,i had a few pieces...the veneer chipped a bit upon attempted removal of a few parts but glue fixed it just fine. take your time and enjoy it .it is a nice kit

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it actually throw projectiles?**
A: Yes it does, take your time and build it nice and clean. It's for demonstration purposes only, makes a fun toy. Launches projectiles but you won't be breaking any windows.

**Q: Can this trebuchet be used to launch various fruits (tomatoes, avocados, apples, etc)?**
A: I have different sizes of trebuchets but the desk top would be good for grapes. The other fruit mentioned would be to large for the desktop model.

**Q: Could this launch a medium sized coffee grinder from atlanta, ga to murray, ky?**
A: No. But then why would you want to?

**Q: I see a lot of responses for overall distance, but can you adjust for shorter distances, to say launch a sm rubber ball at a co-worker over a cubicle?**
A: There is a mathematical relationship between the weight of the projectile (small ball), the amount of weight in the basket, and the distance the projectile will travel. I didn't take that class. Sorry.  But the Romans and Greeks did and it works out that way. I would recommend a controlled set of experiments before you take it to work to bombard the boss. Happy hunting.

*by B***R on October 27, 2019*

Fun to build. Parts came out of the sheet easily. Would like a better glue dispenser than a pouch. Wasted to much glue and ran out before I completed kit.
