Printing

  • All parts can be printed without supports
  • Add brims if curling is an issue - especially on the base
  • If parts are too tight, reprint just the pins at a smaller scale


Assembly

  • No glue required
  • Insert two link pins into the link.
  • Connect the link to the throwing arm and lever.
  • Secure this assembly into the catapult base using four pins.
  • See the video above for the complete assembly process.

 

How to Play

That's up to you! The model includes two target options:

  • A large basket with multiple rings for different score values
  • Tipping targets that reveal a grave stone when toppled

I recommend creating your own games, challenges, and 3D printed targets!

 

Caution

  • The mini pumpkins weigh less that 2 grams, but use judgement when launching.
  • Do not launch heavy items.
