Brand: PATHFINDERS

Build and operate a historically inspired Roman Onager, a powerful torsion-based siege engine used in ancient warfare. Designed for ages 14 and up, this advanced STEM kit offers a hands-on mechanical build that showcases real engineering principles through functional design. The Onager uses twisted-rope torsion to store and release energy, demonstrating physics concepts such as tension, force, and projectile motion. Precision laser-cut wooden components ensure accurate assembly and a durable finished model capable of launching projectiles. Ideal for history enthusiasts, STEM learners, and hobby builders seeking a challenging and rewarding project, the Roman Onager combines education, craftsmanship, and authentic mechanical action in one striking build

Features:

• BUILD TIME: ABOUT 60 MINUTES - A rewarding, hands-on mechanical build that results in a clean, functional medieval siege engine model once assembled
• AGE 14+ - Designed for teen and adult builders who appreciate historical engineering, mechanical systems, and hands-on construction projects
• FULLY FUNCTIONAL ONAGER - Torsion-powered throwing arm uses twisted rope tension to launch projectiles, allowing experimentation with force, distance, and trajectory
• INSPIRED BY MEDIEVAL WARFARE - Faithfully modeled after historical Roman and medieval onagers, showcasing early torsion-based siege technology and mechanical ingenuity
• MECHANICS & PHYSICS EXPLORATION - Assemble, adjust, and test variables such as rope tension and launch angle to explore real-world principles of energy transfer and motio
