Ye gods Peg! When I was making scale models, they were usually about a foot high, not made out of 4x4s! After what it took to get that thing to school, I at least hope he got to demonstrate it properly. NEVER let your son get near Haz's kid or the world is doomed.

Oops, my bad. My computer was running slow, and I just saw the first pic. It looked like it was taken outside. I thought that y'all had built a full size replica, not a model. Still good, but not as impressive in the full size siege engine, scare the crap out of the teacher kind of way.

We gave it some thought (at least an 8' long one anyway)....it would have been much easier to fabricate....albeit harder to get to class.
This one was a foot long (I was figuring about a 1:40 scale).
