I present to you, The Ultimate Catapult, almost!I originally made this to shoot the 2cm X 2cm calibration cubes, but it's actually the perfect Seej weapon too!It catapults the cube an extremely impressive distance due to the angle that it releases it at.It also has a fully working trigger system, and is sturdy enough to add quite a few elastics.There are quite a few parts, but assembling it all is part of the fun, and totally worth it."almost" is because I have a few modifications (and yes, even MORE parts) that I have in mind for a V2.Note: This is one of the first thing's I've made. I am very new to this whole printing thing, and even newer to modelling. I've just watched the Sketchup training vids on YT - so I hope the models are OK. Please let me know if I've done things right. I've also included the SketchupFile so you guys can have your way with it. And a zip of everything.It's rather complicated to explain the assembly, so please WATCH THIS VIDEO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjHKZ9OX4ec Having only recently set-up my Thing-O-Matic, I printed everything with default Skeinforge settings, with one exception, I turned Extra Shells off. I printed all the parts between 10 and 20% infill, and although it looks like a mass to print, the final build is only +-27grams. Printed without raft or support, and needed to set the HBP to 110 to make some smaller things stick nicely.I made this to print on my Thing-O-Matic, so it should fit on pretty much anything :PHere's what you will need to print: 2 x SidePins 2 x TriggerPins 4 x PinTabs 1 x Bucket 2 x FrontBarTab (rotate this in ReplicatorG so it's flat.) 1 x FrontBar 2 x SidePanels 1 x TriggerBar 1 x TriggerTab 1 x TriggerBlockI didn't record printing times, but as far as I rememeber most of the parts were very quick to print, with the exception of the side panels which took around an hour.Have fun :D
