DAY 1
-We got the required materials and started assembling the catapult
-We nailed triangular supports in the corners to improve stability and placed the two arms on the side for the main support.
-We nailed the support onto the side arms
-Our main problem in this stage was that the support was tilting to the left, so we had to take out the nails and place them properly

-For the rope bundle, we tried this polypropylene rope but it did not work out well as it had no elasticity.
-The rope was hard to turn and barely provided any tension
-Then we got some advice from Mr Peasley, who then gave us a great idea to use a nylon rope as it is much easier to twist and creates a lot more torque.
