Thanks SSamuel3

This is the same Idea as the other youtube.
I've made nerf shooters that have a range of 100 or so feet Maybe I could adapt them ! ;)

Thanks for the kind comments again

I just built one of these this weekend from plans I found on another website. We are making marshmellow shooters for a cub scout den meeting. I cut and bought enough PVC for seven guns but I couldn't wait till our meeting next week and had to build one. One son and I had a great time targeting my daughter and her friend. These things are surprisingly accurate and really a lot of fun. The guns cost me $2.03 a piece! What a deal! The ants in my yard were eating the marshmellows that were not picked up so I was helping feed insects that help keep my lawn green that produces oxygen to fight greenhouse gases. So the way I see it, wasting marshmellows is good for mother earth.

What a great idea. It looks so fun and you get to bean the little ones in the head and I bet they laugh about it. Wasting marshmallows shooby? Come on get real. Oh BTW who is the "Hottie" in the into pic? Is that you tigger46?

Ahhhhh...... right after I wrote that I knew I should have said cutie not hottie. She looks 19 or 20. Now I feel like a sick perv, nauseous and all. Sorry about that, thank you for telling me. What do you teach? (per your bio)

I do appreciate the cleanup effort though. Very environmental. But wasting food is not! Somewhere in China a factory exists where men and women are spending their lives producing marshmallows, for Americans to throw on the ground! Ah, land of the plenty. Love it!

I think that marshmallows are toys that just happen to be tasty.
ARVash in reply to shoobyJun 30, 2008. 5:30 PM
As if marshmallows provide sustenance :P. Chinese children would play with these too :P.
shooby in reply to ARVashJul 9, 2008. 10:30 AM
Certainly in the cities, I think, where Chinese people are even more materialistic than in the U.S., children might throw away food. But in rural China, a food consisting entirely of highly refined sugar is considered a source of sustenance. A simple experiment could be conducted to prove this: Feed one sample of mice unlimited marshmallows, and starve one sample, and see which sample lives longer. Of course, this would be a waste of good mouse meat, which after living in China for 20 years, I've seen people eat on numerous occasions. We can think of marshmallows as disposable toys and mice as pests, but people who have less would consider it a heinous waste not to eat both.

Hey Kicker109! Maybe the question should be to you? If we're using lung power to throw marshmellows around in public. Do we need a license?
