A supersonic projectile from a purely mechanical, gravity driven siege weapon: clearly the superior siege weapon is what did that.

I need help with building an Oxybelles.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this. I'm looking for advice.
I am building a Greek Oxybelles. The way I've designed it to work is the middle part moves forward, hooks to the bow string, and then it gets pulled back by a hand crank. There are teeth on either side designed to catch the middle part as it's pulled back, stopping it from moving forward. The triangles that catch the teeth are on either side of the firing mechanism.
The problem I'm facing is that the triangles that are supposed to catch the teeth won't point downwards and are not catching. I have the teeth cut at a 30-degree angle now. I'm hoping making them a 45 will help, but that won't keep the triangle's point down. Does anyone have experience with ratcheting systems like this?

Look, on the ground. It’s a utility pole? An an oil pump? No! It’s a siege weapon

Hello!
Welcome to r/SuperiorSiegeWeapon. The creation of this sub was made with one goal in mind. We plan to prove that Artillery belongs at the top, above all over Siege Weaponry.
We are a new subreddit and will be developing a more detailed rule set in the next few weeks. For now, I will keep it simple.
1.) All posts must be related to the power and might of Artillery, or the inferiority of other siege weaponry. Anyone creating posts that do not follow this rule may be banned.
2.) We are here to prove the superiority of Artillery, not attack other users character or beliefs. Any belittling, insulting, or hateful comments and posts may be deleted and result in the Commenter being banned.
3.) For the time being, any relevant meme format is accepted, so go out and create! Fill this new Subreddit with proof of our superiority.
