Description

This is our best catapult yet!  2 spiral springs power the winter snowball catapult.  There are print in place bearings to help us throw further.  A roller on the trigger makes it super smooth.  Prints with no support in PLA.  Print your own and win every snowball fight this year!

 

Print Difficulty Notice: This model contains very small elements (particularly the bearing rollers) that may be challenging on some printers.

Our test setup: Printed successfully on a Bambu Lab X1C with Coolplate Supertack (9 prints, no adhesive needed).

If you experience first-layer adhesion issues, try:

  • Ensure your print bed is clean and level
  • Reduce first layer speed
  • Increase bed temperature
  • Apply adhesive (glue stick, hairspray, etc.)

We recognize these small features push the limits of many printers. We will try to avoid using tiny parts in the future. Thanks for your patience!
