'I'm affraid of thoose things now' :lol: .I made a small catapult that used elastic bands,it was 5cm wide,7cm long and 10 cm high.It was made from toothpics and looked really nice.Not to mention it could fire rasins and peanuts 45 feet.It was the dread of my class three years ago and if you fell asleep or dropped your guard then you where under siege!
