      I would have enjoyed drinking a beer or two with your dad. Fish guts is a brilliant idea.

        I like the egg trebuchet idea..... my uncle gave me a tater canon for xmas one year that used a lantern strike lighter for the ignitor. I could nearly clear my dad's front paddock and hit the road if i used the round end out and added a litte compression

          Rifling it what I'd like to add... just for the science project aspect of it of course.

            As for the stand why not just use a cut to length log? My side stand is useless and center stand has the foot lever cut off ( I suspect from being wrecked) so I used a log, id use it temporarily never long term..
            Pvc, I made a pvc air powered water cannon as a science project in middle school back in 92, also a tool carrier for the xt350 I had a while back...

              Iron pipe would be easy to build and a lot stronger. You'd want to drill and pin some of the joints to make sure they can't twist, of course.

              Or, just go get a HF welder and gear along with some material and fab a proper one for about the cost of buying one, but with a nominally useful tool left over.
