Nice, I built one myself. However, I added super glue in order to make the rubber band stay, since the rubber band wasn't staying. I've had it for a few weeks, and it shoots about 15 feet.

if you use it as a match shooter and put the match scratcher thing that lights the match, then you could shoot fire!

i made i dart for my blow gun like that, i cut a qtip in half, shoved the wooden end of a match inside it, then super glued a needle to the match so it would stick hehehehe
