Building a mega (pendulum) catapult

The hurling catapult or spoonblade was the most destructive artillery weapon in the Middle Ages. It was used to hurl projectiles against or over castle walls. With a good design and execution, can you repeat this trick and beat the other teams?

Back to basic
With extra thick wooden poles of up to 3 meters in length, various constructions can be built. Teams are given 1.5 hours to do this.

Pioneering: from nothing to something
It starts with a design on paper and building a prototype with the lightweight bamboo sticks. In the next phase, the team gets down to the real work! For this, the necessary knots are first taught. Once everyone has practiced the mast throw, lashing and winding in several variations, they can start working independently.

Alternatives available
Various versions of a catapult, trebuchet and/or spoonblade are available. Which solution will the team come up with?

Need extra challenge?
We can add various game elements to the assignment as desired.

What our customers say

"Workshop sparring with the DISC, or boxing with our employees. Lots of interaction, energy and reflection. It was a blast!"

We discovered how we could get more out of our Team Building at the Eiland van Maurik; fun and concrete content! The anthousisame, knowledge, skills and adaptability of Jouke and Angelique are an absolute added value!

In a unique way, Angelique takes you sparring through the disc method. As a result, you literally learn! I learned what color(s) to confess and how others are colored.

Great collaboration, real listening and results. Very pleasant experience and from the team all praise for the Purpose Discovery workshop with 23plusone! Thanks
