Academy 18157 Flying Pendulum Clock - Da Vinci inspired mechanical model

The Academy 18157 Flying Pendulum Clock is a rewarding kit for collectors and builders who appreciate historical engineering. This assembly project highlights the clever mechanics that echo Leonardo da Vinci's inventive approach and is well suited to display after completion.

Explore Leonardo's mechanical ideas

Leonardo da Vinci left a legacy of sketchbook inventions that blend art and engineering, and this model brings those concepts into a tangible form. As part of Academy's Da Vinci Series, the kit gives hobbyists a practical way to study early timekeeping mechanisms and the design thinking behind them.

Assembly challenge and display reward

Designed for modellers who like precise construction, the kit includes clear instructions to guide each assembly step. When finished, the Flying Pendulum Clock makes an elegant display piece that demonstrates the marriage of aesthetics and function typical of Renaissance inventors.

Specifications

  • Scale: Non-scale
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Optional for enhanced detail
The kit offers moderate difficulty with small components and careful alignment needed; experience with glue assembly and patience will help achieve the best result.
Use a quality plastic model cement and fine tweezers, a hobby knife, and small files for fit. A steady work surface and clamps or masking tape help hold parts while glue dries.
Painting is optional but recommended if you want to highlight details; consider enamel or acrylic hobby paints and thin brushes for fine accents.
