Basic Knex Gun

Some modifications on the basic knex cannon. Adding a more realistic trigger device, and a handle. An d a bit of extra power.

Step 1: Gather Parts

Here is a list. About half way through making it I decided to replace 1 of the grey end clips with 2 blue spacers instead. But either way can be done.
I messed up, add 1 red rod to the list of needed parts.

my blue rod wont go on :'(

[foamyguy]

yeah, that part was pretty difficult to snap in there. Had throbbing fingers by the time tht I got it, The way I did it was to put the white ones both the blue and the yellow. then it isn't as bad, or you can replace the blue rod with a yellow one so that its longer and would make putting the white ones on easier.

hey um can u sub the red connectors with som different ones i dnt hav enughf

[foamyguy]

Yeah, the ones at the top of the handle would be the easiest to replace. You could use any color except for either of the grey ones, or the orange. If you need to replace more than that, I would use green ones that have 4 clips, or yellow that is 5. Just try to keep the bands so that the unused clips are not interfering with them.

wow, i've seen a lot, 3 haha, but this is by far the best, so much power and so easy to use. i'd give it a 10 on a scale of 1 to 5
