Okay, before I tell you how to make the dangerous things, I've gotta tell you to not throw them at animals or people. But if you absolutely must have a shuriken duel with your friends, get some eye protection and don't use the really sharp ones. I know a guy who got a half inch cut across his eye, luckily he didn't get hit anywhere that wouldn't heal.

Before you start cutting, you're going to need to draw a design on your CD's with the marker. I use a simple and easy to draw four point design, but there are many possibilities. (You can sample some of them below.) First I draw a line all the way from one end, through the middle, and to the other side. Then I draw one at a 90 degree angle to the first through the middle, splitting the CD into four sections.
The next part is a little hard to explain, but you can see it in the second picture below. Now, from where one of the lines meets the edge of the circle, connect that point to where a line perpendicular to that one meets the inner circle. Then repeat on the other side, and for all of the four sides. It should look like the fifth picture when you are done.

 Make sure you draw on the read side, not the side with the pictures or cover.

I like to make things that go fast and explode. Even better if it's steampowered and pimped out with LED's.
