Siege Engines for Desktop, Semi-Functional/Moving Parts on Trebuchet and Ballista. Adding an Improved Rail to the Ballista Will Make It Usable with Rubber Bands. These Prints Are Optimized for a 0.4mm Nozzle. This Really Comes Into Effect When Putting the Pieces Together. Post-Printing Assembly Instructions: Trebuchet Use the Handle or a 2.5mm Dowel to Secure the Arm to the Base. Hang a Bucket on the End of the Trebuchet Using a String for Holding Weights Like Rocks, Steel Ball Bearings, or Lead Sinkers. Find Out What Works Best. Don't Glue the Supports into the Base, but You Can Glue Them If You Want To. Most Parts Need to Move Freely. Ballista Cut Off the Front Block on the Head Mount. This Will Make It Easier to Print. The Ballista Head Will Slide Nicely onto the Ballista Arm After That. You Can Glue This Part. Mount the Arm to the Stand with a 2.5mm Dowel. Try Using the StandShort for Better Angles. Put Tiny Rubber Bands over the Pegs on the Back, Tie a String to Them, and Wrap It Through the Side Slots on the Head of the Ballista. Cannon Glue the Two Halves of the Cannon Together. The Top Half Has a Peg. You Can Fit It in the SiegeBase with StandShort or Use Its Own CannonStand.
