materials:
3 wood pencils
1 slim crayola marker

this project should cost about 5-10 bucks so its reasonably cheap

Step 2: Step 1

simply cut the pencil in half
its better if the pencil is insharpened

Step 3: Step 2

next, get the crayola marker and cut about 4 inches off the middle and make it hollow on both sides

Step 4: Step 4

stick the two pencil halfs into the crayola marker piece evenly

Step 5: Step 5

then use the tape to secure both sides evenly and tightly so it does not slip out
then cut another piece of the crayola marker.
if u are short marker then use two because the barrel should be long for better accuracy.
