Decor-Miniature Wood Catapult

An exquisite representation of a medieval siege weapon, the Miniature Catapult is superbly crafted from wood and employs a bow powered mechanism. This is a magnificent accent for the home or office to express your historical interests. The bow style mechanism is a unique design which is based on the Petraria Arcantinus, a catapult which is believed to have been used during the Third Crusade by the army of King Phillip. Steel is used to craft the steel bow and hemp rope is used for both the bowstring, as well as the means to pull back the lever arm. Improving the realism of this design, four wooden wheels allow for it to be portable and a small spherical projectile is included. Experience the ingenious medieval design of the Miniature Catapult.
