Academy 18137 Da Vinci Catapult Model - A Hands-On Historical Replica

The Academy 18137 Da Vinci Catapult is aimed at hobby builders who value historical accuracy and mechanical detail. This kit interprets Leonardo da Vinci's sketches into a plastic model that highlights the inventor's approach to simple machines, while providing a rewarding build sequence.

Background and Design Faithfulness

Leonardo's drawings were often conceptual, and this Academy 18137 piece lets builders examine those concepts in a scaled form. The model emphasises the mechanical principles behind the sketches, making it useful for anyone interested in the history of engineering.

Build Flow and Presentation

Assembly requires patience and attention to part fit, rewarding the builder with a compact display object that retains movable elements. The finished model stands well on a shelf or in a display case alongside other historical subjects.
