Crossbow Launcher Thing

UPDATE 3/10/23: Structural update to launcher track includes diagonal stopper to help prevent direct impact, therefore decreasing crackage rate. Rubber band hooks are also more hookish, resulting in rubber bands staying on better. WORKING AS OF 2/28/2023!!! IMPORTANT NOTE: Do NOT use super beefy rubber bands unless you have super tough filament that can withstand the launcher hitting the stopping point of the launcher track. Next update will include structural changes to the launcher track to prevent this issue. UPDATE 2/28/2023: Rubber bands now wrap around launcher holes and hooks have been removed due to weakness. Need for supports has also been removed from launcher. Next update will include structure update to the launcher track to prevent cracking. Assembly instructions: https://youtu.be/vgLwWGMZb5k Please share your makes of it, and what settings you used. I have included a picture of how to assemble the trigger pieces. I also recommend not using the included pieces to hold the trigger and the trigger turning part, just use paper clips. To use without trigger, see included picture. Thank you for the inspiration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjOWenyKSj8 The included pictures of the sliced model are scaled down to 50%, if that means anything to ya.
