Thanks for the response, Ed. I would very much like making a trebuchet, and I have found a few kits that would be very suitable. Someday, I hope to be able to construct one with my own know how, and manufacture the parts myself. How long do you think that will take?

thanks again dean. Unfortunately, I do not have a shop teacher. I will e-mail you where I am located, but I think that is not necessary as I can look from my own computer. Where do you need to go?

Thanks for the long and detailed response dean. I do not have a Shop Master or Smith (whichever one they are called.) but I do have pretty much all of the hand tools and some basic power tools (jig saw, sander, power drill, but not much else. Not table saws or band saws.) that I can loan from my dad ...

I am a teenager who has almost never done any woodworking except building a book case when I was in third grade. I have renewed my interest in wood working and I need to do some projects that are at my skill level, which would be absolute novice. Any suggestions?
