Special animation
for birthdays: To launch candies with the precision balance.

The precision balance is a weapon
of with a catapult very much used in the middle ages.
This very effective war machine allowed to throw stone
balls of 200kg all the way to 200 meteres at the time
of a siege of a castle. The precision of the shootings
of the precision balance was very large, which made
it possible to perforate the thickest walls. Very often
besieged capitulated with the simple sight of the precision
balance arriving at the foot of the fortress.
|
We rebuilt a small-scale model of precision balance
which works perfectly. It projects blocks of rocks of
10 kg to 20 kg to 60 m.
But we use it in a much more peaceful way and it is
very appreciated by the children at the time of the
birthdays: the candy throw. Click on the image to see
it video.
