Larger Improved Seej Catapult

cults3d

I increased the size from the original catapult to 150%. I added 2 more supports in the middle to provide more strength. I also made all of the holes for the supports into pockets so this model will be stronger and WILL NOT REQUIRE ANY GLUING. You can if you want, but the tension of the windings should be enough to hold it together. All of this added strength allows for more tension to be applied to the catapult. For my version, I was able to use a loop of boot lace rather than the rubber band that was used for the original. This adds MUCH MORE POWER AND RANGE!!! You could also use several loops of nylon cord and it should provide the same effect. The higher the infill you use the better. This is designed to be much more powerful, so the more strength you add through infill, the more stable it will be. I included ammo balls that are designed to work specifically with the scoop arm I created. I recommend printing them at 20% infill for better range. You may want to use supports to print the left and right frames just to make sure that the pockets print cleanly. If your printer is well calibrated, it should print fine without though.
