toothpick crossbow

This is a fun toothpick crossbow that can stick into foam and other objects and shoot surprisingly far.

Safety:

do not shoot any living thing or and where where anyone could be hit also always wear safety glasses when using

printing:

print with supports and use decent infill as the bow can needs to bend and you do not want it to snap(I used 20-40% infill).

Materials:

toothpicks(for assembly and use)

3d printer :)

Assembly:

put the pieces together as shown in the pictures. Use toothpicks as shafts for the holes, then use glue to secure the toothpicks in place. Now to string the bow tie a knot on one side and tape/ thin down the middle so it roughly fills the firing slot tie the other side taught and you are done. :)

thank you :D
