  1. Lay pen on pencil approx. center
  2. Wrap you tape diagonally both ways around pen and pencil
  3. Cut a rubber band with your knife or scissors
  4. Tape the rubber band to both ends of the pencil. Your rubber band should be very tight
  5. I taped the ends up because my rubber band kept slipping out this prevented it from continuing.

Load and Shoot

Load you pen innards into the pen barrel.

Pull the rubber band pack and grab the pen and pull back. Then let go.

Shot from chest height I got mine to shoot roughly 65 feet!!
