This desktop trebuchet catapult kit is a perfect example of ancient ingenuity. This mighty siege weapon was constructed with wood, rope and leather by very skilled craftsmen many years ago. These catapult kits try to be as true to the original as possible, there are no plastic or metal parts in this kit, just wood, twine and leather. The kits are proudly Made in the USA by a family owned and operated business.
The desktop trebuchet kit can hurl a projectile 10 - 20 feet and can be assembled with very basic tools. They say that it takes 2 - 4 hours to assemble and that is pretty accurate. I bought this kit for my nephews birthday and helped him put it together, it took us just under 3 hours.
