Explosive Blowgun Darts

I will be showing you how I made some simple blowgun darts that make a loud noise and some smoke upon impact.

Video coming soon.



WARNING: THESE DARTS ARE DANGEROUS!!! DON'T UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES SHOOT THESE AT OR NEAR PEOPLE, ANIMALS, OR ANYTHING THAT MAY BREAK. TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Step 1 Gather Materials

You will not need very many things to make these darts. You will need....

-Caps. The kind that comes in circles of 8 or 12 caps.

-A rod. Should fit snugly inside the caps. About 2 inches long is good.

-Electric tape

-Packing tape. Needs to be crisp plastic stuff.

-Blowgun. Mine is just a 1/2 inch aluminum tube.

-Scissors

Nice, but this is different from mine. They use similar ammo, but mine have multiple "charges" I guess, and I use a cheap needle, not an alluminum rod. Because of materials needed, I think I'll stick with my darts. Great idea though. AND, if it's just on by a snug fit, that makes it reusable... I think I will try this :D

you could use a nail

I just happened to build it that way because I had the materials. Mine is reusable. I like your idea because of the multiple caps per dart.
