Nerf "Battle Spear"

$Nerf \"Battle Spear\"$

This is a small project to do in about 15 min if you are bored. These can be fun to use in mini battles with your friends or whatever, that's what I do. It's really easy and really fast, and cut me some slack, it's my first instructable, ok?

Step 1Gather Supplies

You will need....

1. a long cardboard tube (best to use one from wrapping paper)

2. bullet/ missile tip from a nerf gun or something like that...needs to be small enough to fit in cardboard tube, but big enough to be snug in there. you can use many different things for this part, see what you have and pick the best one

3. (optional) rubber bands to put around the cardboard tube for grips

4. (optional, but highly reccomended) lots and lots of duct tape to put on cardboard tube. this helps prevent rips and damage to you spear

Just so you know I've made these before and it works much better if you fill it with rolled up paper then squirt a bottle of glue into the tube. Then use duct tape to close the end so no glue can leak out. Wait a few days for it to dry and then its done. pretty good instructable though

If you want to make it stronger take some more tubes cut one slice down the full length and insert entirely into the "spear" the more tubes on the inside the stronger it is.

that looks fun to do, but i just fight my friends with sticks and shields but still if you used that and a nerf gun just to play around it would be fun

Looks interesting, I've never owned anything "Nerf", my friends have, but I haven't, it's weird. Anyway, looks neat. Also, don't ask people to go "easy on you" because it's your first, without harsh criticism you can't make good changes.

You could like rubber band some stringy red stuff to it to make it look something like spears in Dynasty Warriors 4

Jan 11, 2007. 9:31 AMVanfisa says:
