Overview

PopularMechanics.com selection for one of The Best DIY and Home Improvement Books of 2009 

 

We’ve come a long way from the Peashooter Era: with the advent of modern household products and office supplies—binder clips, clothespins, rubber bands, ballpoint pens, toothpicks, paper clips, plastic utensils, and (of course) matches and barbeque lighters—troublemakers of all stripes have the components needed to build an impressive, if somewhat miniaturized, arsenal.

 

Toy designer John Austin provides detailed, step-by-step instructions for each project, including materials and ammo lists, clear diagrams, and construction tips, for mayhem-loving MacGyvers. The 35 devices include catapults, slingshots, minibombs, darts, and combustion shooters. Build a tiny trebuchet from paper clips and a D-cell battery. Wrap a penny in a string of paper caps to create a surprisingly impressive “bomb.” Several of the projects even include variations where combatants mount laser pointer sights to their shooters to increase their accuracy.

 

Finally, once you’ve built your armory, the author provides plans for a Top Secret Concealing Book to hide your stash, as well as targets for shooting practice. Never let your personal space go undefended again!

    Great idea for boy's (or tomboy's) b-day

    I bought this book and a bunch of required materials for a birthday party I threw for my 8 year old boy. I also bought some cheap $3 safety glasses (science goggles) for each boy at Home Depot. We picked three projects that were easy enough for the age (with my help) and at the party had a blast assembling and test firing coffee beans down the driveway. The book makes it really clear how to create these fun toys and I think would be even more fun for pre-teen kids. In the end the boys were so into it that they were patient enough for me to help them build the launcher on the cover.

    Fantastic!!!

    My 10 year old son loves this book. He's dyslexic and loathe to read unless he has to. But he carefully read the instructions because he so wanted to make the weapons. Yeah!
