Robert at the Cats TC try stretching
rubber. It could stretch 6 times
it's length at most
|
With some more help the arm, pivot
and skip are hoisted into place

The Cat-alysts Flinger

The Barley Pickers Flinger

|
|
The Cats oil up their ramp for a
smooth ride
|
The ramp is inclined to 25 degrees
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Meanwhile, the Pickers load
4 TONS of lead into the skip
|
The Cats get their first Mini
loaded onto the trolley
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This big truck will take the slack
out of the chain and stretch the rubber
|
There goes the Mini!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And uh...it traveled zero meters as
the tow chain snapped
|
The heavily loaded skip is raised into
place as the pin is fixed in place
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The pin is pulled and...
|
OH NO!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The machine ripped itself apart
|
The judges did decide that the Mini
did travel a whole 9 meters
(albeit in the wrong direction)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Cats still have to get
distance on this shot
|
The truck pulss the elastic back,
with a new chain
|
|
|
|
|
 |
| The sheer pin snapped... |
..and there it goes! |
|
|
 |
 |
Oh! Such a landing with a
distance of 15.5 meters |
