Step 1: You Will Need

Materials:

  • An old (broken) arrow
  • Bendable wire or rod

Tools:

  • Drill
  • Drill bit in the size of the wire
  • Saw
  • Pencil

Step 2: Prepare the Arrow

  • Cut the arrow clean.
  • Drill a hole in both halves of the arrow.

Step 3: Add the Wire

  • Put the wire in the hole in one half of the arrow.
  • Mark how deep it goes in.
  • Do the same with the other side.
  • Bend an U-shape big enough to go around what ever you want to shoot 'through'.

Step 4: Make the Shot

Find your props and make your shot.
