Let it be publicly known, that on September 21, Year of Our Lord 2007, 12:53 PM, that [livejournal.com profile] klingonlandlady opined that it would be a good idea if we had a kitchen trebuchet, for launching compost into the compost pile in the back yard.

So if/when it gets built, she ASKED for it.

On second thought, the slope from pantry to compost heap isn't steep enough. How about a rail gun?

Hm, telescoping pole with payload at top, attached to zipline, big crank to raise the pole and lever to release payload... all done up steampunk, of course.

And spherical, for extra credit.

Spherical rail gun. [livejournal.com profile] frobzwiththingz is the man to solve it.

How about a steam powered pneumatic system of tubes to deliver the payload to the compost pile?

oo! Biodegradable tubes, in "green" and "brown" flavors!
