Good day to all! In today's article, I would like to show you how I modified and reduced the previous one. model a web-based paper shooter that shoots small projectiles.
The new model is at least 4 times smaller than the old one, but it shoots no worse. Next time I want to try to put on this model a magazine with several cartridges that will be sold automatically when loading, because of the very small size this improvement will be difficult to make, but I will try. So wait.

And so in order to make a mini web shooter out of paper, we need:
-5 notes for notes
A4 paper sheet
- two or three small rubber bands for weaving
handle rod
corrugated cardboard
Of the tools we will also need:
thermal glue
-scissors
- nippers or pliers
lighter or matches
tape or glue
-Super glue
And so, first of all, you need to roll one thin tube from a leaflet for notes, for this, carefully roll up the edge, then roll up the tube completely and seal the end with tape or glue:
Now we take one more sheet for notes, put a thin tube on it as shown in the photo and begin to wrap the sheet around it, after which we fix the whole edge with tape. In total, we need 3 such tubes. Bad edges should be trimmed in advance:
Now we cut one of the thick tubes approximately into the floors, and dig one of the edges with super glue:
We glue our tubes just as shown in the photo, this should be done very carefully so that all the tubes are parallel to each other:
Take a thin tube, cut off its thin ends, then add a little hot glue to one of the edges and squeeze this edge a little:
Now we bend the edge into which hot glue was dripped by about one centimeter, after which we put our gum on the bend, clamp the bend and use Scotch tape to fix this whole structure, in principle it is possible with hot glue. In general, this design should work out:
On our design, we make two small cuts from the thick tubes on the front side, they can also be dripped with super glue:
Now we take our workpiece from a thin tube and insert it into the middle thick tube on another workpiece, the elastic bands should be fixed on the cutouts that we made, in general, it should turn out like this:
Take A4 sheet and cut it into halves, then start folding it by indenting 1-1.5 cm, then glue it all with tape, this should be a strip:
Now you need to make "loops"
We cut one sheet for notes approximately into the floors, then we add each segment more along the floors and glue it, then we glue from one of the edges a large strip of paper so that a passage forms on one of its sides, in general, as shown in the photo:
The other end of this workpiece should be cut in such a way that it can pass through the holes of our paper loops (this workpiece is a mount on the hand, so you should adjust it individually for yourself)
Then we take the core from the pen and with the help of pliers we take out the metal end, this should be done on an unnecessary piece of paper or a rag, since ink can pour out. Pour hot glue into the hole formed:
We take matches or a lighter and by heating we bend one of the ends of the rod, the bend should be about 1 cm long. Then, if desired, cut out 1 cm by 1 cm squares from cardboard and stick them on this bend for better grip with your finger:
We glue our paper tube structure to the arm mount exactly in the center:
Using super glue, we reduce the back hole on a thick tube, so that the rod from the handle comes out of it with a slight tightness:
We insert our rod from the handle into the tube in which the hole was reduced and that's it. Our mini web shooter is ready and it remains only to test it! To do this, first you need to put it on your hand as it is convenient for you, tighten the mount, roll small paper shells, then insert them into the middle (in my case pink) thick tube, pull back the “shutter” as shown in the photo, fix it on thick tubule with a rod, aim, press the rod from the handle and shoot! This design, although it is very small, but it doesn’t shoot badly, I think it’s ideal for the same office wars or for fun on the other. A funny and safe thing, so I advise you to do it.
Well, thank you all for your attention
