Quote:Salve, or how is it said in roman way and greetings from Finland!
I joined this forum just yesterday and this is my opening message. First I would like to ask about what do the actual re-enactors think of my small catapulta( I don't know how to put pictures in but I'll try)
I am also working on a manuballista and a larger scorpion-style(Vitruvian) arrow shooter, about 70% finished. Notice that I am only 18 years of age but I have still made many working artillery pieces(this one can shoot up to150 meters, not very powerful). Would a real roman re-enactment group be glad if they could have my artillery pieces as a part of their group if I was a member (although I don't know any re-enactment groups from Finland and I think there aren't any)?
You're doing a great job on your scorpion there. And maybe you should start a Roman group there in Finland. That is a country I have always wanted to visit, by the way.
