You Can Be a Siege Engineer
Build your own medieval catapult, and support a technology museum. Teams sought for the Charles River Museum of Industry spring fund raising event. A one day event where your companies' team will build a large scale traction trebuchet, and then compete to see which team's machine can throw the farthest. Win valuable bragging rights, help a local museum recover from a serious flooding event, and take home a machine that will be great fun at a summer picnic, or prove useful for repelling hostile takeover attempts.
