Additional Information
Imitation means creation in the late Renaissance world of famed inventor, artiste and engineer, Leonardo da Vinci. While Columbus sailed the ocean blue, young da Vinci, convinced he'd culled all Florence could offer, set out for the thriving city-state of Milan to bring his pragmatic melding of form and function to the service of Ludovico il Moro. His early drive mechanisms were meticulously sketched to marshal Renaissance man's command of nature. His notebook, only partly saved from the ravages of time, offers up the footings for such feats as building damns, tanks, submarines and mastering even the impossible, flight.
In a clockwork universe that gave rise to mankind's quest to harness nature and things, da Vinci stands alone as the foremost imitator and re-creator of nature. In the spirit of da Vinci, we bring fine model kits that represent innovation, insight or inspiration which changes history.

The Fabulous da Vinci flying machine kit 
First of all, the kit is beautiful. I work with high school and adult students and they are so excited about working on it. The poster is great, the instructions are incredibly detailed. We'll keep you posted about how the building goes...
