A catapult is a lever and a counterweight and you can see exactly how it stores energy; a twin-bow crossbow is two bows working against a frame; a cannon is the moment that made both obsolete. Building one means handling those parts in order, which teaches the mechanism far better than a diagram does, and the finished model is a genuinely good-looking object rather than a toy to put away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe mechanism is the model.\u003c\/strong\u003e Nothing is hidden inside a shell, so the build explains how the machine worked.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree machines to choose from.\u003c\/strong\u003e Catapult, double-bow siege crossbow, or cannon.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWood, not plastic.\u003c\/strong\u003e Appropriate to the subject, sturdier to build with, and it finishes as something you would keep out.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA real build.\u003c\/strong\u003e Assembly takes patience and rewards it, which is the point rather than a side effect.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnds as a display piece.\u003c\/strong\u003e These sit on a shelf afterwards.
