How to Make a Simple Cardboard Gun.

In this instructable, I will show you how to make a simple cardboard gun. It is super easy to make, and the supplies are probably at your house. A good reason to make this is so you can shoot at your friends and family for fun. A note is that this gun may be easy to make, but if you mess up a single step, the gun won't shoot. ddd

1. Big cardboard pieces
2. 2 rubber bands
3. Scissors or a box knife
4. Average-sized plastic water bottle
5. Glue or tape

The first step is to cut two pieces of cardboard into 16 cm x 7 cm.

In addition to the last step, cut 2 pieces of cardboard to be 16 cm x 2 cm.

Then glue the 16 cm x 2 cm piece on top of one of the 16 cm x 7 cm piece.

Afterward, cut a hole in the top middle so that the cap of the water bottle can fit in the 2nd piece of the 16 cm x 7 cm cardboard and glue it on top of the first 16 cm x 7 cm cardboard piece.

Then cut the plastic bottle so that only the tip part of the bottle is left.

The next step is to add the tip of the water bottle into the hole and make dents on the bottom side of the 16 cm x 7 cm piece so the rubber bands can fit it.

Furthermore, cut out a T-shaped cardboard piece that is long enough to reach the bottle cap.

Lastly, connect the rubber bands to the side of the handle and that's it. To shoot it, make flat pieces of paper and put them inside the bottle cap, then pull down the handle to shoot.

Overall, this tutorial to make a cardboard gun will help you make this super easy, fun, and simple gun to play with your friends and family! (There is also youtube videos about this same gun; if you have problems with my tutorial, you can watch the tutorial from YouTube!)
