The Pumpkin Trebuchet!!!!

The pumpkin trebuchet was created in 2005, replacing Rob's tired 2 year old pumpkin catapult. Rob and a group of talented craftspeople created a mortise and tenon oak timber frame, that can be dismantled and reassembled in about an hour. The trebuchet can throw a 10lb pumpkin a stunning 280 feet. Look for more pumpkin chuckin' festivals in the fall.
