Altoid tins are great for just about any DIY project, including “The Curiously Strong Trebuchet”. To build your own, you’ll need: wood, threaded metal rods, and an Altoids tin. Video after the break.

My trebuchet is a bit different than some of the others that you see, in that uses a rubber band instead of a counterweight.
