How to Make a Paperclip Slingshot

I show how to make a mini paperclip slingshot. It is very easy to make and only requires a paper clip, elastic band, and pliers to bend the paper clip with. The paper clip is bent into a ‘Y’ shape and the elastic band is cut and tied to the fork. The projectiles are simple V darts that can be made by bending paperclip scraps or folding paper into a V shape. It only takes a few minutes to make and with enough practice, you can become a fairly accurate shot. This is a fun project that you can do to entertain yourself when you’re bored.

A slingshot, bean shooter, or a hand catapult is a small hand-powered projectile weapon. The classic form consists of a Y-shaped frame held in the off hand, with two rubber strips attached to the uprights. The other ends of the strips lead back to a pocket which holds the projectile. The pocket is grasped by the dominant hand and drawn back to the desired extent to provide power for the projectile (up to a full span of the arms with sufficiently long bands).

This is so cool, I made it and it works. I could've made it better if I had something other than just my hands, but I still love it

In order to shoot V shaped projectile, you can simply loop the rubber between thumb and finger, no need to cut the rubber band and bend the clip.

Took a lot of pain and work for this… I couldn’t use pliers because I’m sitting in a nurses office trying to find something to do 😂

[rafehemmerlein]

I bet u could make one to shoot small rocks if u super glued a thumb tack to the rubber band

[hotdogkiller]

Won’t the paper clip bend when you pull the band back

[rxlezdm]
