9 years ago I lead the engineering on a TV show called "Beat the ancestors" and we made a massive Roman arrow thrower called a catapulta. I loved everything about it so much I made my own, but never quite finished it..........and now I have.

There is likely to be strong discussion on what this is called (the comments will be on fire), but my understanding is that ballista shoot stones and catapulta shoot arrows/bolts/darts. The machines look similar, but in fact are different.

This is the first film where I get it out of storage and start to explain it to you. From now on, let increase the power and find out what it can do.
