For my physics 111 class, we had to construct a trebuchet and use it to launch a cushioned egg. This is the website where we were able to find some designs and plans which we modified by making the pieces of wood wider to be more stable. Our trebuchet was roughly 5 feet tall when the swinging arm was not hooked into position.
