Easy 2 Minute Project

Paper clips have a long history... Maybe not. 

Paperclips fascinate me with there simplicity and usefulness. This is a tiny instructable on how to create a quick 2 minute catapult that launches anything from paper wasps to  tiny notes. 

For this project you need these items: 
Paperclips, large
Binder
Hands
Sharpie

That is it! Lets get started

Step 1: Flat

First step is to obtain the paperclip. Take this paper clip and flatten it out as straight as you can! The hardest part is straightening out the end.

Step 2: First Bends

Follow the picture above

Step 3: Curls

Go a half inch and curl the paperclip around a binder ring 5 times

Step 4:

Bend outwards the remanding paper clip outwards to make a L shaped form.

Step 5: BACK TO THE START

Next, your ready to launch. Load a paper wasp and let it fly!
