A counterweight is a weight equal to another. A counterweight is one of the five major components to a trebuchet. they have also been used in elevator, cranes, and funfair rides. if the trebuchet didn't have a counterweight the trebuchet would not fire accurately. Counterweights can be used for many different things and objects. I found a picture of some counterweights on www.stormthecastle.com/.../trebuchet-build3.htm
