Complete description
With the advent of modern household products and office supplies - binder clips, clothespins, rubber bands, ballpoint pens, toothpicks, paper clips, plastic utensils, and matches and barbecue lighters - troublemakers of all stripes have the components needed to build an impressive, if somewhat miniaturised, arsenal. Detailed, step-by-step instructions for each project are provided, including materials and ammo lists, clear diagrams, and construction tips. The 35 devices include catapults, slingshots, mini-bombs, darts, and combustion shooters - build a tiny trebuchet from paper clips and a D-cell battery, wrap a penny in a string of paper caps to create a surprisingly impressive 'bomb', and convert champagne party poppers and pen casings into a three-barrelled bazooka. Finally, plans are provided for a top secret concealing book to hide your stash, as well as targets - cardboard critters, big-headed aliens, and zombies - for shooting practice. Never let your cubicle, home office, or personal space go undefended again.
