MinPen Mod!

MinPen Mod!
Well, this kid named Danny that is in one of my honors classes has like thousands of these generic transparent pens that he transforms into blow dart guns. I came up with this while sitting in Honors Physical Science. Not really amazing, kind of silly, (really silly), but i guess if your this crunched for space it will help :)

I do this with pens sometimes, but i just fold the ink tube in half and this way it doesn't get messy. Good instructions by the way.

Instead of cutting up a full ink tube, why not wait until it is partly used? That way you would reduce the mess when cutting it.
