Doing Davinci

[Capt Gabriela Fullpepper]

Anyone else watch this premier episode the other night on Discovery?

WOW very cool. The team built an actually Fully functional Davinci Tank all with technology Davinci had in his time. Little did I know Davinci actually invented ball bearings and a wedge breech loading cannon. While not very fast and powered by 4 guys cranking away made the tank move at a little slower than walking speed.

Toki and I loved this new series and plan on watching all of them.

Each episode the team has to try and build a Davinci invention all with the technology that Davinci had.

I started watching it and due to long day I dozed off about half way through it.  I would of loved to have seen the final product and especially the firing of the 36 cannons.  I look forward to the next episode as it will be the making of  DaVinci's "Scythed Chariot" and this thing looks way wicked!
