Description
Wooden model kit inspired by Leonardo da Vinci’s aerial screw, found in Manuscript B, folio 83v. Often seen as a visionary idea for vertical flight, the model features birch plywood and a TNT fabric sail. Fully functional, the top can be spun by hand. Requires PVA glue (not included). This was not a real machine but a theoretical concept, possibly inspired by an ancient Roman toy that lifted into the air when spun between the hands. Leonardo reimagined the idea with incredible foresight. Easy to assemble and beautiful to display, this model is a favorite in museum stores and a tribute to the imagination of the Renaissance.
