» Slingshot »" Gunshot "matchstick do it yourself

Do-it-yourself firearm match

Hello dear readers and the inhabitants of our site!
In this article, Roman, the author of the YouTube channel "all ideas", will try to recall a children's toy from the time of the USSR. Still remember the classic matchstick arrow! The author will show the assembly of an optimized, "gunshot" version of this toy, a piston will be used as a "sleeve". In general, you get a miniature gun that will shoot very loudly with a piece of a match.

Of course, at a time when matchstick arrows were popular, there were simply no glue guns, so ordinary glue and threads were used. This model can also be done on this principle.

Materials
- Wooden clothespin
- Pistons
- Broken Chinese network plug
- Matches.

Instruments, used by the author.
- glue gun
- Joiner's knife, nippers
- screwdriver
- Vise
- Hacksaw
- Grindstone
- Marker.

Manufacturing process.
To begin with, Roman simply parses the clothespin into three parts.



Then marks and cuts the hook for the trigger spring.



Now cuts the trigger groove.



The spring is installed in this way, and then cocked. When you press the "trigger" it snaps.




Next, Roman marks the places of the slices.

Clamps the first workpiece in a vice and cuts with a hacksaw. This part will be the top barrel lock.


Now cuts off an unnecessary piece from the bottom of the matchstick.


Marks on the blanks the places where the trunk will be fixed.


On the top you can cut a groove with a hacksaw.



But on the bottom - it will not work, it should not be the entire length of the workpiece. Cuts it with a knife.


He then disassembles the cheap Chinese power plug and removes the pin. It must be hollow.



The rounded edge of the pin and its reverse side grind on a grindstone. Yes, you can at least on paving slabs or concrete floors.


But here is an important point, the rounded part needs to be grinded out not completely, but part of the rounding should be left.
Therefore, he holds it up to this form and cuts out the middle with a knife.


Here is a "trunk" should succeed.



Applies a layer of glue to the bottom with a glue gun and presses the top, pinching the barrel between them. Then the external slots are carefully poured with glue.




It should be like this. It is on this rounding that the piston will be worn.


It remains to glue the handle and the "clip".




So, the gun is ready, the striker hits almost in the center.


The novel begins to manufacture "cartridges". To do this, cut the quarters of the match with tweezers, and paste them into the hot-melt adhesive glue. It needs very little, so that there is space between the match and the sides of the piston.


The author charges the gun by inserting a match into the barrel, and putting the edges of the piston on the rounding of the barrel.
Then he experiences it. Very good!




Well, shooting at the target. The cardboard box got a dent and fell, but did not break through.

So here is such nostalgia!



Thanks to Roman for the memories of our pranks!

Observe safety precautions!
Even such a small piece of a match can cause injury if it gets into the eye.
Use safety glasses!


Good mood to you all!

Years in the 50s of the last century, love a kid would have done easier, more elegant and more efficient.

at the expense of the 50s a little exaggerated, I do not think that the children of war would use a flaubert cartridge, it’s very boring.
Years in the 50s of the last century, love a kid would have done easier, more elegant and more efficient.
The idea of ​​minus 20 is a pity there is no possibility. Description minus 5. Execution minus 55.
Schoolchildren used similar trigger systems back in the 70s, it is described as for down, 30% of the photos were taken for money, they don’t reflect information or explanations, the source choice is like the one in the cell (well, there’s nothing else). And about the performance, you and they all said it themselves. ..... a decent view ..... you, is it serious or just in an attack on me?

Okay Justify your assessment.
Idea = 1
In some ways, it is innovative, I have not seen one like this yet.
Description = 1
Are the photos of poor quality here? violated the rules for writing an article? A bunch of typos?
Execution = 1
Well, yes, it’s collected on thermal nozzles, but what? Works. and has a very decent appearance.
Yeah, there are no censored words, from the word at all. Particularly impressed with the advice is to use a concrete floor as an emery.
