Very cool... looks like ya really put some time into that rig, great job.

Del the cat:
Cheers guys, it's still a work in progress, but hopefully, being glass it won't drop speed and poundage like the previous boo/wood prods did :(

Wowzers.  :o 255 is pretty unbelievable. Did the wooden ones they made back in the dark ages shoot that fast?

I don't think they shot that fast, but the big steel prods could throw a very heavy heavy projectile.
One big windlass crossbow with a draw weight of over half a tone was shot over a quarter mile by Sir Ralph Payne Galwey, so they must have been pretty quick.
