More Information about Castles
TThe purpose of this
page is to give to give you some references to castles in general.
The pictures shown here were used to help in the designing of
the Fiddlers Green Castle.
Modelling friend, Dan Reno
is developing this new method of disposing pet
litter with a range just far enough to reach the pet OWNER'S
yard.!! |
I
can vouch that Dan's catapult can perform well under considerable
strain. Using 90 lb. card stock for my model, I have fired the
catapult with about 30 pennies stuffed into the counterweight
bucket. While the range is modest, the overall performance of
my little war machine is quite satisfactory. I was thinking of
building that V-2 rocket, and I think the catapult would make
a nice contrast standing nearby...
Hmmm. Considering our earlier discussion about mixing French Provincial
furniture and early German artillery, I wonder if medieval siege
engines would be a better decor match? ;-)
This is a great model, Dan, and I'm very impressed that it's your
first design. Your attention to appearance and the woodgrain coloring
are quite professional. Bravo!
