Backyard Catapults
How to Build Your Own
by Bill Wilson

Bill Wilson provides photos of the building process, detailed and updated plans, plus construction information on ballistas, onagers and trebuchets. You will aso find information on catapult web sites and how to be included in some of the catapult contests around the country. Also included is some interesting catapult history, as well as discussion of its strength and weakness as a weapon, and what it was that led to its demise as a functional war machine. There's no question that warriors have found more efficient means of lobbing projectiles at enemies, real and imagined, but has it ever been as much fun?

Bill Wilson grew up near Atlanta, Georgia, and has spent most of his adult life avoiding things that would limit his freedom, such as credit, relationships and responsibilities. He has, however, nurtured a passion for writing, and describes himself as "a happy bohemian, slightly insane but completely harmless."

Backyard Artillery Set
Backyard Catapults & Bad: A Video Guide To Constructing and Firing Your Own Backyard Artillery Device
by Bill Wilson and Ed Carson

SAVE WHEN YOU BUY THE BACKYARD CATAPULTS BOOK AND BAD DVD AS A SET.

In Backyard Catapults, Bill Wilson provides detailed instructions and illustrations for homemade catapults, as well as construction information on ballistas, onagers and trebuchets; information on catapult web sites and catapult contests around the country; and catapult history.

But why stop with catapults? With the information in Ed Carson's BAD: A Video Guide to Constructing and Firing Your Own Backyard Artillery Device, you can assemble your very own backyard artillery device (a self-contained, electrically fired, smooth bore gun powered by a fuel-air mixture of high-octane gasoline and pure oxygen), using just an assortment of parts available at any hardware store and a few hours of semiskilled labor.

See the descriptions of the individual volumes for more details. This set is not available to wholesalers.
