You'll need ropes or chains from the two side holes to the bar for lateral stability.

Sir Wolf , i have 23 of these catapults, and about 15 of the roman ones, i think we should combine all these and create a rain of boulders to an opponents army  :love: :love: :love: :love: . all these catapults together would be quite a sight !!!!  :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:.. I need to buy some more, 22 aint enough right Sir Wolf ???  :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:

Nope, that won't work. These parts are made to be hooked on a narrow frame and they are not flexible to fit the wide frame of this catapult.

 :no: :no: :no: :no:

The difference is so small they do fit . I have tried that with success in the past . the ends of these clip nicely into the two holes of the catapult front section and voila !!! you got a catapult on wheels !!!!

Well I was wrong about the wide frame and fexibility, but unless you want your catapults being towed on two weels, better cut off that small end the do not allow the front weels to touch the ground...

nope, they dont sit at all on that position... its upside down you see and the black thingies are falling on the ground all thetime... unles you manage to customise a piece, the initial idea Bonnie had is the best solution.
