Pump Action Toy Crossbow

cults3d

This is a simple pump action crossbow that runs on rubber power. It can fire standard 6" plastic arrows up to 25 meters, and potentially farther with reduced accuracy. Single shot - loaded at the muzzle. Safe for both indoor and outdoor use. Build a Cricket Board or Bull's Eye Target from a foam mat and challenge your friends to a test of skill. Assembly requires cleaning out body holes if necessary, then gluing Male and Female halves together using gorilla/super glue or epoxy. Clamp the parts in place and let them set. A small 18 gauge nail gun is used to secure the trigger in position. Center the Prod in place with Hot Glue. Rubber slingshots can be powered by a TheraBand (Gold). Learn how to tie off rubber strips for maximum effect. Measure two rubber strips as wide as the Prod and as long as the Prod from tip to tip. Fold each strip in half. This setup has been tested with double power - using two strips on each side for added safety, do not use more than this amount of rubber. Para-cord is used for the string. Test your crossbow thoroughly. Remember to use caution and follow proper safety guidelines when handling this device. It can still cause injury if not used correctly. Never point or shoot at anyone! Always wear eye protection when using a crossbow. The speed of the arrows can reach up to 90fps or more, depending on how you set it up.
