hey guys can you post a knex gun thet shoots a rod but dus not need a rubber band! please post it

Miles Tails Prower in reply to halo99Jun 2, 2009. 4:14 AM

Here you go! It's basically just a white connector with green rods clipped onto it. Just push on the green rod and it will clip out and fly away with pretty much force. I also have a video:

There is one. Somewhere, I KNOW I saw it.

Owenmon in reply to halo99Dec 7, 2008. 4:48 PM

the only way you could do that is 1. make it air-powered (almost impossible with knex 2. make it spring powered (pretty easy

dotancohen in reply to halo99Mar 11, 2008. 12:13 AM

halo99, "dus" is spelled "does". Please help keep this website professional and use proper spelling. This is not myspace. Thanks.

DrWeird117 in reply to dotancohenDec 14, 2008. 6:21 PM

You got a looooooooooooooooooooooooot of work ahead of you, TONS of people use Text talk. Ugh, annoying.

Bartboy in reply to dotancohenMay 17, 2008. 10:21 AM

wat? i dont get i wat du u meen? LOL

halo99 in reply to BartboyMay 17, 2008. 1:01 PM

it means that if you can post a knex gun that does not need to use rubberbands and can still shoot a rod or something!!

Bartboy in reply to halo99May 17, 2008. 8:06 PM

yes I understood you, I was making as many spelling mistakes as I could to annoy dotancohen

dotancohen in reply to BartboyMay 18, 2008. 11:32 AM

You will have to try harder than that! I don't get annoyed when people misspell. I simply think that they are childish.

Bartboy in reply to dotancohenMay 18, 2008. 11:34 AM

Then why complain???

dotancohen in reply to BartboyMay 18, 2008. 1:09 PM

I was not complaining. I was helping.

dotancohen in reply to halo99May 17, 2008. 3:59 PM

You need something that will store the energy. Take your pick:

Elastic energy
Chemical energy
Kinetic energy
Potential (gravity) energy
Nuclear energy

You pick, and I'll make an implementation suggestion.

DrWeird117 in reply to dotancohenDec 14, 2008. 6:22 PM

Nuclear energy.

DrWeird117 in reply to dotancohenDec 14, 2008. 6:22 PM

Do you have K'nex?

Bartboy in reply to dotancohenMay 18, 2008. 11:35 AM

Make a co2 gun!

dotancohen in reply to BartboyMay 18, 2008. 1:11 PM

co2 guns are easy. Pop quiz: which of the energy storage types I mention does a co2 gun fall under?

Bartboy in reply to dotancohenMay 18, 2008. 5:37 PM

I wonder... Chemical! now post a baking soda and vinager rifle!

Sgt.Waffles in reply to BartboyJun 7, 2008. 7:44 PM

Wrong.

Bartboy in reply to Sgt.WafflesJun 7, 2008. 10:47 PM

What you mean?

Sgt.Waffles in reply to BartboyJun 15, 2008. 12:14 AM

Pressurized CO2 is not chemical energy.

Bartboy in reply to Sgt.WafflesJun 15, 2008. 7:38 AM

Yes it is! The chemical energy come from baking soda and vinager , and then becomes pressurized, that is chemical!

dotancohen in reply to BartboyJun 15, 2008. 10:55 AM

Compressed is not chemical, even if it is a gas that is compressed. Tell me, which type of energy would you call it if it were a semi-rigid solid that was compressed instead?

Bartboy in reply to dotancohenJun 15, 2008. 11:18 AM

kinetic, And elastic is kinetic!

dotancohen in reply to BartboyJun 15, 2008. 11:49 AM

It is elastic, but elastic is _potential_ energy:

dotancohen in reply to Sgt.WafflesJun 15, 2008. 1:43 AM

@Bartboy: take a look at the list I wrote and tell me, which one seems closest to "compressed" in your opinion. Never mind that it's co2 being compressed.

knexskating9 in reply to dotancohenMar 30, 2008. 10:24 AM

i waz goin 2 made it butt i have 2 many knex guns end like no more peces

Ratchet and Clank in reply to knexskating9Mar 31, 2008. 2:05 PM

This is my question for all of the "simple" knex guns: What makes it special?

DrWeird117 in reply to WhalemanDec 14, 2008. 6:23 PM

Please bash elsewhere.

Whaleman in reply to DrWeird117Dec 14, 2008. 6:36 PM

O rly?

It was merely an observation made a little less than a year ago. How was it bashing this instructable? I even put the "'simple'" in quotes so that one, such as yourself, would understand that I was referring to the class of knex guns with words like "easy" and "simple" in the title, such as this one.

So again I ask you, what was so trolling and bashing about this comment that was more so than the thousand other comments I posted? It seems to me that it was a good question to ask, "What makes it special?" and a question that should be asked of all knex guns, nay, all instructables. What makes it so special? What makes it special enough that it deserves its own instructable?

DrWeird117 in reply to WhalemanDec 14, 2008. 7:15 PM

Not to mention the "ha!"

DrWeird117 in reply to WhalemanDec 14, 2008. 7:15 PM

It was bashing because "I was referring to the class of knex guns with words like "easy" and "simple" in the title, such as this one."

Whaleman in reply to DrWeird117Dec 14, 2008. 7:35 PM

What in the bloody hell does that have to do with bashing? Would it be bashing if I said I was referring to the class of instructables with "How to..." in the title? It is a concrete fact that there are a large number of knex gun instructables with "easy" and or "simple" in their titles. It is also well known that the vast majority of these guns are similar in function and style. And about the "ha!" It would have made more sense had you replied to that comment instead of my perfectly sensible, non-trolling post. Also, when you are quoting quotes, you only use apostrophes instead of quotations. Had to say it because you were commenting on grammatical errors not more than two minutes before accusing me of bashing on this instructable.

DrWeird117 in reply to WhalemanDec 14, 2008. 10:12 PM

And I wasn't talking about grammar when I quoted "ha!". I was talking about how you made fun of this.

DrWeird117 in reply to WhalemanDec 14, 2008. 10:07 PM

Grammatical errors? When did I talk about that? Basically when you said that, you were saying that you thought this shouldn't be posted; it wasn't "special".

Darth Trainman in reply to WhalemanAug 26, 2007. 10:37 AM

It was made by TWO people! lol...

Whaleman in reply to Darth TrainmanAug 26, 2007. 12:20 PM

ha!

Darth Trainman says: Aug 25, 2007. 11:42 AM

Easy. I've lost track of how many times I've heard this. This gun is absolutely nothing new. Before rushing in and building a gun as awful as this, you should look at other guns and their comments, to learn how to build a proper k'nex gun and make it new so you don't get barraged by such mean commenting such as this.

DrWeird117 in reply to Darth TrainmanDec 14, 2008. 6:24 PM

I was wondering: What is so great about a ball machine? What does it do?
