Two Kingdom Trebuchet Battle (A Makerspace Introduction)

Create your own personalised mini trebuchet and destroy the opponent team's castle!

Brought to you by SUTD Makerspace Club

What to expect

SUTD Makerspace club is all about making happy and interactive installations. Collaboration sits at the heart of every project we embark on.

This is a 2-hour workshop where you will be introduced to what it’s like to be a member of the SUTD Makerspace Club. A fun session to try out a mini craft project. There will also be a sharing session at the end of the workshop where you will learn more about the club and can suggest what projects you would like to do with the club in your Freshmore year!

Participants will learn:

• how to read basic technical drawings
• basic assembly skills (guided instructions)
• how to code using an Arduino
• more about the Makerspace Club

There is no pre-requisite knowledge as this will be a workshop targeted at beginners.

could you pick a specific date? Also I think it'll be in first week of June yes?

Thank you!

[LinHuiqing]

6 June. Made changes to the original document. Is it okay?

[Fishbiscuit]

much better, now I can put it up in the schedule :)

Also are you requesting for a budget or is this something you have assigned with your club already? Thank you!

[LinHuiqing]

Sorry, could we change to 30 May 6-8pm? We decided to revise it after some discussion.
Also, yes, we are requesting for a budget. Thank you!

[Fishbiscuit]

I would not recommend putting it at that time because it will clash with a Housing session, try for another week?

[LinHuiqing]

This session is before the Housing session, so should be fine. Also, we would not have enough manpower otherwise haha, so let's keep it on 30 May. Thanks!

[Fishbiscuit]
