1. Repeating Crossbow Plans
Build a Repeating Crossbow with these easy, step-by-step plans and instructions. When complete, the Repeating Crossbow measures 32 inches long, 10" high and 27" wide and will fire up to 10 bolts in as little as 8 seconds without reloading. Based on the ancient Chinese Repeating Crossbow, this crossbow design uses modern materials, including a bungee cord for a bow, to ease construction while maintaining a historically correct mechanism and action.
2. Roman Ballista Plans
Build a Working Model Ballista Catapult. Once completed, this Stone Throwing Ballista is 2 feet long and will throw a scale projectile up to 90 feet. This Roman Ballista design allows you to vary the elevation and bow strength for range and trajectory adjustment. Fire it with a soft projectile for indoor use, or a solid one for long range outdoors. Resembling a crossbow, the ballista derives its power from skeins of twisted cord, just like a catapult. The Stone Throwing Ballista is perfect for demonstrating ancient Roman warfare and technology as well as the physics of torsion, ballistics and projectile motion. Ballistas make great science and history projects.
