Cool! Is it from a kit or from scratch? I see some lovelies in that cabinet, too. ;)

Looks great! A few years ago, my sister-in-law gave us all Marshmallow Catapults for Christmas. They were somewhat similar-- a small wooden kit. They were torsion catapults, using wound-up string. Obviously marshmallows ended up all over the house.

My brother is the world's best Christmas gift giver.  It's a kit from RLT Industries (www.rlt.com).

The old china cabinet is where I keep my sharp's and breakables locked away.  My collection is mostly wall hangers and SLO's, with just a few nicer items.
