Thank you for the comments!

Great piece! I might try to make on myself now.


Were you able to do it? I’d love to see it!!

Tolle Arbeit. Ich könnte mir vorstellen, eine Kurbel für Klickyhände würde das gute Stück noch playmobiliger aussehen lassen.

Great piece of work. A crank matching Klicky hands would give an even more playmobil-like look.

I thought about it, but it was too fragile, so I decided not to include it.

Great onager.
The playmobil ones are quite weird but the trebuchet based one is the better one. The one that appears to be a cross of an onager and a ballista is just a mess.

At first glance I thought you'd made it out of something like balsa then read your description. Will you be doing any other ancient engines?

I have a few more things. Everything I make is meant to be used in a board game called La Línia, a large-scale historical simulation game played with Playmobil figures. Little by little I’ll try to share more things; for now, I’ll leave here some photos of a Roman-style hand mill.
