Leonardo da Vinci improved upon the already-established catapult design when he introduced his own vision of the age-old military launching device. This design uses a double leaf spring to produce a great deal of energy in order to propel stone projectiles or flammable materials over large distances. A hand crank on the side of the catapult was used to load the spring.
The scientific genius of Leonardo da Vinci is brought to life through this articulated model. The invention that inspired this snap-together replica is taken from the pages of da Vinci’s priceless and awe-inspiring notebooks. The model is made of plastic and requires no special tools. Manual is very educational and teaches how this invention has evolved into what it is today.
