Leonardo Da Vinci Catapult
A working re-creation inspired by Leonardo Da Vinci's 15th century catapult.
Catapult's were first invented in Ancient Greek and Roman times, however our common idea of them is based on drawings we have from the Medieval Ages.
Leonardo redesigned the catapult around 1485, and used the spring-like energy stored in the bent wood to give power to the swing arm.
A fun project from on of the great minds of history!
- Easy to make in about an an hour
- Natural untreated wood, from sustainable forests
- All pieces pre-cut and ready to go.
- Parts are pegged for extra strength
Fun for all ages 14 and up.
