The Base
To start off you need to make a 4 x 26 base. I am also making mine two bricks high but it is not required.
Add the Bottom Flat Tiles
Add the bottom tiles. They should cover a 2x 24 area in the center with two empty spaces at one end like in the picture.
Add the Sides
For this step all you need to do is add the sides and back to make a wall except in the front. Leave that how it is.
Add the Side Tiles
For this step add the flat tiles to the sides. This is mostly for looks but is cool.
Make the Handles
Take your curved beams and add the connectors to them.
Put the Handles On
All you have to do for this step is to put the handles on, ten holes from the front.
Load
Loading this is really easy just put the rubber band around the front and pull back and let go to fire. And that's it you are done hope you enjoyed it!
