If you cut the arrows down you can fit a few of them and the bow inside of an altoids tin.

you could do that or use q-tips. how much did you cut them down to?

Just small enough to fit in the tin. Q-tips sound like a good idea though, I'll give that a try.

a kid brought it in to school with q-tips and he shot one into my. literally between the socket and actual eyeball.

http://www.instructables.com/id/Bic-pen--bow-%26-arrow/ was here about 3 years before this...

EPL (author) in reply to Jake_CApr 25, 2009. 7:57 AM

ok? i joined like 2 months ago, so whats your point?

Jake_C in reply to EPLApr 27, 2009. 1:27 PM

BTW, I'm not just talking about you, if I felt like wasting 10 minutes, I could find at least 10 of these, I'm not trying to offend.

Jake_C in reply to EPLApr 27, 2009. 1:17 PM

I'm not saying you intentionally stole it, but look up instructables before you post your idea to see if their are any that are almost identical. If there is a big difference, than post it, but if not, don't.

EPL (author) in reply to Jake_CApr 27, 2009. 1:56 PM

I realize there are a lot of these types of instrucatbles. this has some small differences such as the grip going through the pen. its a bit shorter also. its clear and looks better.the arrow is smaller.

Jake_C in reply to EPLMay 2, 2009. 8:04 AM

Ok....

foxtrot4697 in reply to Jake_CMay 20, 2009. 1:05 PM

he made this because their is the bic grip stick pens that are different than the ones the other dude uses

joeydarke says: Mar 31, 2009. 9:38 AM

how far does this go?

EPL (author) in reply to joeydarkeMar 31, 2009. 6:24 PM

prety far if you pull it back all the way. i'd say about 15 feet if the conditions are rights.
