Introduction: Mini Popsicle Slingshot
Welcome to my 2nd instructable on this great platform and today i'm going to show you how to make a super low cost slingshot.
Supplies
You'll need:
1 Rubber band (preferably one similar to the picture)
3 Popsicle sticks (you can buy them from a local craft store
5 Bulldog/binder Clips
Step 1: Main Body
Take 3 popsicle sticks and lay them out in a Y shape then use clips to hold them together as shown in the picture.
Step 2: Anti Collapser
Now for the piece i've dubbed the Anti Collapser. Take one clip and attach it like in the picture. This stop the V from collapsing when the rubber band is put on.
Step 3: Rubber Band Guides
These two clips stop the rubber band from sliding down the V, so put two clips at the top of the sticks that make the V.
Step 4: Rubber Bands
Now attach as many rubber bands as you want to the slingshot. As you can see I only used one band. Just put the bands over the body of the orange clips and then you're good to go!
Step 5: Fire Away
Now that it's done Fire Away! but don't use anything that you wouldn't want flying at your face :D
