Today, I'm showing you guys how to build a Ballista in Minecraft 1.17!
I hope you guys will enjoy the tutorial!

A ballista is an ancient crossbow-like projectile launcher that was used to hurl javelins and/or heavy balls.
This ballista build is not meant to be accurate but I did my best to make it close to the real-life projectile launcher.
This build features deepslate tile details that look like iron materials.

I made this ballista design to have a slightly medieval feel to it because ballistae did not change much in design throughout the years. So, I decided to give it the Minecraft style.
