Mista Ballista and many of our siege machines are built with whatever we find laying around. We make lots of trips to local scrapyards to buy parts on the cheap, and even find raw material by the side of the road. While this keeps costs down, we often have problems finding certain raw materials for reduced prices. The following people have graciously donated materials to help build Mista Ballista. Roger and Kevin go treasure hunting Sponsors Saint-Gobain Technical Fabrics Mark Caron's expertise and access to the materials used to make the Ballista Arms Custom Composite Technologies Inc. Use of the shop and all the consumables that were spent in the construction of our Ballista Arms Sew Shoppe for hosting siege-engine.com and serving up these web pages.
