Introduction: Surgical Shotgun
This is like my other surgical tubing weapon, only sturdier and easier to load. I used surgical tubing because rubber bands break a lot and surgical tubing is stronger. Surgical tubing can be foung at the Home Depot.
Pros:
Uses surgical tubing
is sturdy
has 2 handles
has a real ltrigger
shoots really far
has wheels
Cons:
only 1 shot per load
uses a lot of yellow connectors
no scope
Step 1: Pieces
These are the pieces needed to make the gun. They may be off by one or two, but they are probably exact.
Rods:
orange:10 (not red)
blue: 37

Yes, there are 2 different kinds of locks. If you look at the back of your locks closley, some of them look different. The big locks have bigger indents in the back of them.

3: zoomed in view
Step 7: Make and Attach the Back Handle
The back handle has a built-in trigger. I combined the steps of making it and attaching it because it is a lot easier this way.

white: 15
green: 18
Connectors:
blue: 2
yellow: 7
green: 4
red: 4

7: slide the locks together and attach a grey connector
8: make these, they are the same
9: attach them to the piece you just made, the same on both sides
10: make this
11: snap it on to the red connectors
12: slide a white rod through the green connectors
13: snap on a grey connector
14: turn it this way
15: slide the piece you just made over the other piece of the handle
16: attach the handle piece to the bottom runway with green and white rods
17: do the same on the other side
18: put on the rubber band
19: it goes on the wame way on the other side
20: attach 2 white rods, you are done
Step 8: Make and Attach the Front Handle
Like the last step, this step is making it and attaching it.
Pieces needed for this step:
Rods:
white: 10
green: 23
Connectors:
yellow: 10
green: 2
red: 2
grey: 1
Pictures:

4: make this
5: snap it into the green connectors of the pieces you just made
6: remove 2 grey connectors from the lower runway to give you more room
7: slide the handle piece you just made over the other piece you make earlier this step
8: pull the handle's sides apart slightly so you can attach its green and white rods to the lower runway's yellow connectors
9: same thing on the other side
10: put the grey connectors back
Step 9: Attach the Surgical Tubing
You will need to know how to tie a good knot for this step.
Pictures:
1: slide the surgical tubing onto one of the wheels
2: slide it ont othe other wheel
3: make sure there is abuot the same amount of tubing on both sides of the gun
4: tie a good knot to the white rod at the back of the gun
5: tie a good knot to the white rod on the other side
6: make sure it is firm, but not tight
Step 10: Make the Upper Runway
Pieces needed:
Rods:
orange: 2
white: 15
green: 48
Connectors:
yellow: 30
green: 2
red: 2
orange: 16
grey: 2
Miscalanious:
blue circles: 4
Pictures:
1: finished view
2: make this
3: make these, they are all the same
4: slide their white rods through the orange connectors, don't do this to the connectors on the ends
5: zoomed in view
6: attach the other yellow connectors to the white rods on the other side of the orange connectors
7: zoomed in view
8: make this
9: slide it through the grey connector
10: zoomed in view
11: attach the other red connector
12: slide on a blue circle
13: attach 5 grey connectors
14: slide on another blue circle
15: make this
16: slide it through the only open orangr connector
17: zooned in view
18: attach another green connector
19: slide on a blue circle and attach 5 grey connectors
20: slide on another blue circle
21: attach all the connectors together with green rods
22: zoomed in view
23: flip it over, making sure the blue circles do not fall off
Step 11: Attach the Upper Runway to the Rest of the Gun
Pictures:
1: pre attached view
2: snap its orange rods into the blue connectors on the front of the gun and to the green connectors on the back of the gun
3: zoomed in on the front attachment
4: zoomed in on the back attachment
Step 12: Loading
Pieces needed:
Connectors:
white: 1
Actually, you can use a small wheel as ammo. They can go really far when the gun is shot facing sideways, but it is less accurate than shooting a white connector.
Pictures:
1: pull the surgical tubing back over the white connector. You can press the gun up against yourself and use 2 hands.
2: another view
3: zoomed in on the white connector
4: slide the white connector (ammo) through the front of the gun and back to here
Step 13: Firing
Just pull the trigger. It is on the back handle.
