This single stage coil gun was made from things I just had lying around my house.

Step 1

First you gather the materials box pipe, hot glue gun, 2 15 inch by 6 inch pieces of oak wood, rosin core solder, soldering iron, duct tape, lots of wire, 7 capacitors, a button, a risistor, an LED,  a 9 volt battery connecter, scissors or wire cutter, and a wood saw


Step 2

Finally you secure everything with hot glue and add some extra pipe on the top. When done you clip in your led and your ready to shoot. I've found That paper clips work the best, the first shot I took with mine resulted in a paper being shot across the room, but it's not all fun and games this is an actual gun and is extremely dangerous plus the high voltage can give a lethal shock so I advise extreme caution.
