[kwilson11]

instead of a paper clip use a pencil and cut your rubber band and tape it on. it will then shoot like 10 feet

[THECHINABOY]

I tried to make this but my paper clips were not big enough

[ian25]

Simplicity is good for starting! A+

[Shadowfury]

I like the simplicity, but it's not very sturdy. Try greater angles on the ends, so it doesn't collapse as easily. Good instructable, nonetheless. 4/5.

That's really harsh. You're telling people not to post just because their ideas are too simple for you. I hope you never comment on any of my instructables

[Rye2121]

what did he say?

[peach_fart]

oh no he di int(snap snap snap)

[FrenchCrawler]

Ummm yeah, but we already have a similiar (actually almost exact) instructable on this and it was only posted like yesterday.....

http://www.instructables.com/id/EEDAQWYRZUES84INNH/

Oh sure, his uses two paper clips, but I'm sure it's a lot sturdier.

That is all (at least for now).....

[caddilac]

Sorry, I won't post any more instructibles.

[lukeair45]

yes, you are going to post more. Because this one was awsome!!!!!!!

[FrenchCrawler]

No, don't say that. You can still post, but just get creative. Read what I said in your other post at the bottom.

[AznPanda]

Cool

[LINGLING]

i like it its simple. I'm gonna use a coat hanger twisted around it self so its double thickness and make a loop in the middle to shoot things through

[anoah2]

Hey RETRO awesome idea! Keep em comin. A little mod i did to it was i used a piece of Metal clotheshanger instead of a paperclip. worked great. A+

[icedog515]
