Materials

- 2 rubber bands
- 4 paper clips
- 4 sheets of paper
- tape
- 2 clothes pegs
- a hot glue gun 

Instructions

- Roll up one piece of paper the diameter of a marker, you can put a marker or 2 on the inside to help keep the shape

- Take the marker out and tape the outside of the roll in 4 different spots so it doesn't unroll
- Repeat this step to make another identical tube


-Attach the two identical rolls together with a paperclip on each end

- Place a paperclip on the top of the very front of both rolls. push the paper clip onto the paper and put some glue there to secure it.


- Next, glue a clothes peg on each of the rolls so that it sits at the very back of the roll and each clothes peg opens toward the paper clip and is also in line with their respective paper clips


- Make 2 more cylinders each by folding the paper width-wise and rolling it around something the size of a glue stick. The two of these rolls will be shorter and wider then the first two


- Glue and tape the new cylinders to the two barrels as shown below. these will consist of the handle


Now load the gun up and try it out, make sure not to aim it at people
