About This Item

Description

Engage in ping pong warfare with this Ballista kit! Students use only wood, string, and leather to create one of the most efficient weapons of siege warfare.

The kit is straightforward to assemble -- no tools required. Set-up takes only 30 minutes! Students can use the included ping pong ball, or other lightweight projectiles of their own design. Launches are highly repeatable, giving consistent experimental results. The included stand allows exploration of launch angles from 15 to 45 degrees of 10 degrees. Educational guide included.
