Winchester Rubberband Rifle - rbguns.com

This is a modification I made to plans for a wooden rubber band winchester rifle, you were supposed to cut it all out of layers and layers of 4mm wood. I have a CNC machine, so manual labor isn't necessary. The idea behind making one was inspired by ThisOldTony's CNC series, specifically his last video where he built his own aluminum version. Unfortunately, I couldn't reach him for comment or plan sharing. So, I made my own, three to be exact, for my niece and nephews. You'll need some 5mm wooden dowels, which I used flower pot sticks, 16mm rods for the barrel, wood glue, rubber bands of sorts, and a scope for aiming. The whole thing ended up being about 10% larger than the original design. A 2/3 size would be more suitable for kids. Also, sometimes it snaps backward if you're not careful loading, which means you might get a rubber band in your eye while aiming. The scope helps a bit. The original design comes from www.rbguns.com. I've emailed the owner of rbguns.com twice over the past three months asking if it would be okay to share my version of his PDF plans. While I haven't received a response, you can download his original plans from his website at www.rbguns.com and share my plans with proper credit. One last thing: I'm not responsible for any eye injuries that might occur during use. Have fun! I've included the original 123D file as always.
