With the Pitsco Trebuchet Kit, experience the thrill of flinging projectiles like those medieval machines while focusing on height, velocity, and distance – rather than knocking down the enemy’s fortress.
The kit is great for small groups of students and includes punch-out basswood body parts, sling materials, and other hardware. Clay and mass plates are sold separately. Requires a hobby knife, needle-nose pliers, ruler, scissors, sandpaper, and white glue, sold separately.
Students can alter characteristics of the trebuchet – projectile (clay) mass, string length, or the counterweight – to test different variables. Students also see these concepts in action: levers, inertia, counterweights, and friction.
Highlights:
- For ages 12+

- Material: Basswood
- Assembly Method: Gluing
- 15th century military engine used for hurling weapons and rocks
