A must for any interested in the topic,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Backyard Catapults: How to Build Your Own (Paperback)
Bill Wilson is no newcomer to catapults - nor to writing about them. His first book on the topic provided many insights: Backyard Catapults: How To Built Your Own offers even more, from photos of the building process updated by more recent plans and ideas to catapult websites and contests around the country. Packed with black and white photos and diagrams, Backyard Catapults is a must for any interested in the topic.

This short little book of about 80 pages lists instructions for building 3 devices. An onager, a Trebuchet, and a ballista. These are full size machines, all of which you build on the base of a wood pallet,THe first 19 pages are on the history of catapults.

There are so many good catapults in this book! My favorite is the pocket catapult, which is surprisingly strong. Not deadly, but pretty good. I also never knew you could make a catapult out of ham. I use mine to play skeet.
