Siege the day!
By: System Administrator  on: 04/18/2008 [11:17 pm]  (2262 reads)
A new design for an old idea. The X-treme Onager is a simple torsion engine, with a frame designed for three advantages over a traditional Onager:

1. It puts the skein in the middle of a double-frame for added strength
2. It eliminates the need to drop the sling into a hole or off the edge of a table
3. It allows the arm to rotate farther, past the traditional vertical stop.


This design achieves those goals and it looks darn cool too!

Another new product

Desktop_Trebuchet
Defend your desktop!

Our new Desktop Trebuchet is now available! It's a perfect ornament to any desktop or bookshelf. Unlike most model trebuchets, the sides angle inwards for a stronger axle and to create complex angles at the joinery. It's a much more interesting model, and it hurls missiles (included) over 20 feet!

New and Improved, the F.A.T.
Guillotine-style trebuchet is back!

This one has lots of improvements over the old model.

We've updated the frame architecture, wheels,
release-pin and trigger. It's a much better machine!
