Put your coordination skills to the test with this build-it-yourself working recreation of Leonardo Da Vinci's fifteenth century catapult. It actually fires soft clay balls once assembled!

Your fully-functioning scale model is easy to make in about an hour for a beginner model maker and can hurl the included clay balls up to 4 metres away. What a great demonstration of a historical military device!

Made from natural wood for durability, all of the pieces are pre-cut and drilled ready for assembly. Simply follow the instructions to build this ingenious design and test it out by firing the soft clay balls!

Measuring an impressive 41cm long, the Da Vinci Catapult is the perfect educational gift for hobbyists, model builders and school children. It's great for visual perception and hand-eye coordination!

Recommended for ages 9 and up.
Required but not included: glue and a ruler.
Includes over 30 pieces (including clay balls) and an illustrated instruction manual with lots of history!
Dimensions: 41cm x 25cm x 16cm once assembled.
