An Illustration of the Bellifortis Trebuchet

This is an illustration that shows a great view of the ancient Bellifortis Trebuchet. It was built hundreds of years ago and is trying to be rebuilt from old drawings. The 21 ton trebuchet on a previous link used the base plan from this trebuchet. Note the counterweight stopping beams and the large winch to pull down the throwing arm. This is a great trebuchet to re-create from.
