Duct Tape Boomerang

Duct Tape Boomerang
I have been trying to make a really good boomerang for a while now. I have made successful wooden boomerangs, but they would always break after a few good hard hits on the pavement. So I decided that I would make a more resilient boomerang. This duct tape boomerang's strength lies in the fact that it can bend without hurting it (The whole bend, but not break thing.), and the fact that it is waterproof. This boomerang if given a proper through, and if made correctly will come back to you(unless it is too windy), although this may take some practice.

-Note 1-  This is not made out of 100 percent duct tape.
-Note 2- For this instructable it really helps if you already know how to throw a working boomerang
-Note 3- Works in little to no wind only.
-Note 4- In hot weather the boomerang often becomes quite flimsy, and will most likely not work

You will need these three items,

-Duct Tape (I used colored duct tape)
-Flexible Cutting boards(you can buy a pack of three at wal-mart for 3-4 bucks, and each board can fit 4-5 boomerangs)
-Scissors
