Architecture club busy designing, developing and building catapults

John C Thomas Architecture club takes time out from their usual Friday morning studio session to design, develop and build catapults from household items to launch tennis balls across the elementary school playground.

The furthest distance acheived was 45 feet, but club members are already modifying, redesigning and innovating to go farther.

In their usual Friday morning studio class the club draws plans on drawing boards or uses CAD on the computer. This term they've worked on Model buildings, spacial designs and learning to create and draw objects to print on a 3d printer.
