Blow Dart

This is an incredibly effective blow dart, its pretty fast to make and flies beautifully.

Materials

All you need for this is a piece of a milk carton, a lighter, a nail, and something to mold it on, I found that a highlighter case makes a great dart for 3/4" pvc.

Melt the Jug

You want to make the milk jug material go see through, slowly move the piece above the flame, dont let the flame touch it.

Form the Tail

Push the see through area over the highlighter tube, be careful not to break the jug material.

Cut Out the Tail.
