How to Make a Catapult (2 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS!) | I Like To Make Stuff

[@hikaruyoroi]

But is it a siege weapon capable of flinging 90kg projectiles over 300 meters?

[@dual2859]

/r/trebuchetmemes is leaking

[@Konomira]

Came here looking for this. +1

[@sonobitches]

we got em R2

[@cmnakano8211]

This is the best thing ever, especially since you used old projects in it too!

[@jamesthompson9978]

No, it is an inferior seige weapon

[@Thepracticalengineer]

Hey Bob, Congrats on 2 million! thats a super impressive number. Also I like your 'some projects can also be quick and dirty' attitude a lot. Not everything needs dovetails.

[@Iliketomakestuff]

Thanks! I totally agree. More often than not, things just need to be functional :)

[@Thepracticalengineer]

Yes, on some of my project videos I struggle with this. Where I want to do it quick and dirty but its for a video..

[@MakeSomething]

Looks like you had a blast! So much fun! Congrats on 2 mill!

[@Iliketomakestuff]

Thanks dude!!

[@monaglewoodcrafts]

Hello

[@PJGalati]

At 3 million, I smell a trebuchet coming. :P Looks like a lot of fun Bob, congrats on the milestone!

[@bmw_de]

Catapults? I hope you know what the superior siege engine is...

[@rhetorical_]

90 kg over 300m amiright!

[@jakob803]

/r/trebuchetmemes

[@marcisozols2800]

its common knowlage that the trebuchet is far superior siege engine

[@EvanAndKatelyn]

Congrats!! Can't wait to see what you come up with for 3 million 🙌😀

[@jamesthompson9978]

EvanAndKatelyn- The superior siege weapon- A trebuchet

[@jhjahdhs1549]

OMGG I just watched ur video!!!!!! btw love ur vids

[@herlofrumfragi4361]

Why not build a Trebuchet? It's the superior siege engine. Even a ballista is better than a catapult!

[@Iliketomakestuff]

*sigh*

[@deltaninjadrm]

**goes to garage to make a trebuchet**

[@ragnkja]

Herlof Rumfragi The catapult was used successfully plenty of times.

[@ARC--Fives-ro5hj]

A trebuchet is a type of catapult

[@jamesclare8800]

Cannons are far superior to Trebuchets

[@vepr5596]

BOB! you should know the superior siege weapon is a trebuchet! grats on 2 million of us too!

[@WittAllen]

Tbh I was just waiting for Josh to launch the arcade cabinet at you. Congrats on the 2M, bud. Thanks for the positivity, can-do attitude, and education!

[@darthrevan2063]

Witt Allen lol ikr

[@janbottos7817]

* cough cough* Trebuchet is the superior siege weapon * cough cough*

[@jamesclare8800]

you misspelled cannon

[@lfkw2484]

You should've built a trebuchet. Don't you know it can use a counterweight to launch a 90 kg projectile over 300 meters? That's what I call a superior siege engine!

[@hungrycolby]

I am so happy for you Bob! You are a genuinely amazing person! It might be sappy, but I nearly lost it when you pulled out some of your old projects to defend against the veggie-projectiles. Congratulations on all you have accomplished, here's to the next million!

[@Iliketomakestuff]

Thank you Colby! I really appreciate!!

[@RitchieE24]

Next week is the trebuchet I hope! ;) Building a catapult was always a childhood dream of mine. Maybe once I have some of my own I'll have to live up to that dream!

[@LucDesormeaux]

Congrats on the 2 million subscribers! It's well deserved, you make awesome content.

[@olef0280]

Why not make a trebuchet it can shoot a 90 kg projectile over 300m you know

[@2008dzl]

Damn, I had the same idea.

[@REVOLUTIONS51]

Uhm...that would need a weight of 850 kg (1700 lb) dropping 2 meters, assuming efficiency of 100%... in case of a more realistic 65% it would have to be 1350 kg or 2700 lb

[@chadiushippocampius]

deus vult

[@ryanblackwell8321]

@@REVOLUTIONS51 Unless you use a floating arm trebuchet which has an efficiency of around 95%

[@samuelswihart4285]

Old meme bruh

[@robertlong2661]

This is the best thing on KZbin right now. I love that you used fun things from other videos to play with the fun thing in this video. It’s no wonder 2 million people love watching you make stuff. Congrats!

[@NitroNovaMusic]

Already excited to see your catapult video today, dude. I hope you make a follow-up for the weapon that can fling 90 kg of projectiles over 400 meters!

[@phil.pinsky]

Huge congrats to you Bob. Well deserved.

[@Iliketomakestuff]

Thanks Phil!!

[@CorsoWorkshop]

Congratulations on 2 mill Bob! It's great! :D Great project as always, and here's to another 2 mill! :D

[@nicholashollow9410]

Cool, but Trebuchets are where its at.

[@dave14647]

[@NateTheGreat696]

What a great dad you are. Happy to be part of the two million!

[@markroberts5966]

Congrats on 2 million. Way to go. You inspire me to build stuff.

[@MMedic23]

I can't believe you made a catapult.. When instead, you could've honored this milestone with a proper siege weapon. A trebuchet.

[@loved012one]

Congrats on 2 million!!! Cutting the flying tomato and lettuce with your katana and other previous projects was my favorite part.

[@adamolson4558]

Congratulations. What a great, fun video. I love all the past projects you used to magically chop food in half. LOL. Awesomeness.

[@almagill]

Two million subs!! That IS awesome!! :) Well done Bob! Keep 'em coming!

[@JosephMcPhail]

Wish you were still in Savannah, but I'm very happy for you. Congrats Bob.

[@JonnyBuilds]

Sweet catapult, and congrats on 2 mil. One of the first woodworking vids i ever watched was the secret door & I've been hooked since!

[@RedSmithLeatherwork]

That was a very cool build. Congrats on reaching 2 millions guys. Lot more to come!!

[@ethantorone]

Make a trebuchet at 3 million

[@jlinker7]

I love how you showed off the durability of your previous work in this video :-)

I subscribed two years ago, i am currently a 20 yo italian girl in college who has zero interest in doing any of those projects but hey I now know everything there's to know about clamps, 2x4 and every type of (wood) joint and whatnot. congrats on 2million!

I liked the feel of this video, felt raw like how your videos were in the beginning. Congrats on the two million subs Bob

[@TheAfroman]

Happy 2 Million Bob! Love the end where you used many of the things you built to hit stuff with.

[@floflotantan]

i love the Dirty way you make it !! quick and simple, enjoyable !! thanks ! Edit , the end is awesome !!

[@timothybozyczko6469]

Bob, the end of this video made me so happy. Eating lunch at work with a massive grin. Congratulations!!!

[@TheMarcball]

That second millon came zooming fast. well done Bob ! I remember the earlier videos when you had no beard, man. Thanks for the inspiration. Keep on trucking (from France) !

[@pixellite3413]

Congratulations ... and all the best for the future

[@alsutton3779]

Congratulations Bob - brilliant achievement!

[@jasoncoleman2940]

I didn't know that watching Bob's kids being pelted with marshmallows was what I needed to see today, but it sure made my day brighter. Thanks for all your hard work and congratulations on hitting 2 million! Also, you should have tried using the pudding blaster to shoot down some flying veggies.

[@vaughanchapman2930]

Well done! Your brand is so awesome and your videos are the best! Albeit in another country, you’ve taught me plenty tips and tricks Bob! All the best going forward!

[@hansiejansevanrensburg291]

When the idea is for the kids but it ends up being so cool that the adults can't let it go. 😃. I love your channels and thanks for all the intertainment.

[@zacharyouten4525]

If anyone deserves 2m, it’s you guys, congrats

[@roweproductions9424]

Congrat on the 2 million! Good to see the katana again. Probably my favourite build you've done 🙂

[@Lutzboater]

Congratulations on 2 mil. Another great video. Bet the wild life will enjoy all the food scraps you left for them.

[@bigdaddycole77]

Awesome build! I'm thinking of holding a cardboard catapult challenge with my friends now! Congrats on 2 million!

[@alsmith1025]

DUDE! i remember i found you and you only had about 150 subs. Congrats!!! so much respect.

[@clintdurham2584]

[@TheShavingWoodWorkshop]

Lol, great video and very fun build Bob. Congrats on 2 mil, certainly deserved .

[@mdbohica]

Bob, glad to see you're still crazy. And CONGRATULATIONS!!

[@danielrisueno8003]

Big big congratulations, Bob, you deserve double number of subs for your hard work, imagination and enthusiasm!!!

[@greatsonawesome6070]

I've been watching your channel for about four years now, and I am just amazed at how much you've done. Go, Bob!

[@prakaashmeenaa]

I feel so inspired that I could try to make something if I had all these equipments

[@josilasik]

Congrats. I looked seeing old props/projects showing up at the end. Love the channel

[@LivefreeanddiyTv]

Looks like y'all had a blast... congrats again on 2m! 🤓👍

[@JerseyCWP]

Congrats! You have one of the best shows on KZbin.

[@TechsScience]

Congratulations! Hope you reach 10M someday

[@trentencaskey7641]

Loved the use of the katana and the oar, but was really expecting to see at least one attempt blindfolded with the lightsaber. lol Congrats on the 2 million!!!

[@Painteagle]

Modification ideas: 1) A rope going from the release point to the arm that reaches tension right as the arm reaches it's vertical position (or slightly earlier). This will allow trajectory to be modified more accurately. Also, attach a strong spring to the rope for a slightly less abrupt stop. 2) There was still a lot of flex in the top of the catapult. Perhaps a crossbeam would be useful if it were to be padded so as to not damage the throwing arm. 3) Maybe try a sling attachment for the throwing head. in my experience, a sling attachment can throw things much more accurately than a scoop.

[@madelynhostetler4117]

I'm SO excited you have 2M subs!!! I remember I stumbled upon this channel because of the video about making the secret room behind a bookcase! I've loved your content ever since and it makes my day when I see a new video go up! 😊

[@redflamechris91]

Very kool!! Got to show us that snap finger trick and a finished side is magically done!

[@Parkhead_workshop]

A fortuitous build on the day of the (film festival) premiere of the Netflix film Outlaw King. It opens with a complex 8 minute single shot scene culminating in a catapult destroying Stirling castle. I know this because I was an extra who worked on that scene - this video brings back exciting memories. Congrats on 2M!

[@ZebranoWoodCraft]

Absolutely awesome! I want to build a bunch of them and play human sized Crossbows & Catapults hahah. Great video as always!

[@ugrclt]

Very well deserved! Love every second of your videos. Thank you and conguratulations on 2M!

[@Jedi-N]

Another awesome ILTMS video. Congratulations on 2 million!

[@BronkBuilt]

Congrats on 2m. Great project.

[@firebird8600]

Congratulations on 2 million, Bob!! It seems like 1 million was not so long ago.

[@pa6766]

That's awesome! That brings back memories. I built a smaller version as a kid in science camp. Congrats on the 2 million subscribers! Btw, Bob I noticed we share the same surname. Kinda cool. And to all the ballista and trebuchet commenters, Bob said this was quick and dirty. Give him some time to plan and engineer a ballista or trebuchet. Wink wink, nudge nudge Bob.

[@motzemog]

2 million! That is fantastic! Going to need an update video for a distance test now. P.S. Nice header from your wife. Great form!
