Knex Bow

this a knex bow but it has a difference between most others, it's arms are rods not connectors.

these are the parts you will need to make this bow.

1 grey rod
2 orange connectors
3 red rods
1 red connector
6 yellow connector
2 grey connectors
1 yellow rod
10 green connectors
12 green rods
10 white rods
1 doubled up rubber band

this the skeleton of the bow.

these are the supports. this is a critical part of the bow, they prevent the arm form snapping off.

these are the finished bow arm supports.

this is how the bow arm supports are attached

this is also needed or the middle of the bow will bend

this is the mid-section supports finished. do this on both sides.

this is where the arrow will leave the bow, also, it stabilizes the arrow. what side you put this on depends if you are lefty or righty.

have two rubber bands and double them up using a slipknot, then slipknot both ends to the two grey connectors,one on one end one on the other the attach them to the bow arms. congrats your bow is done now to make the arrows.

to make the the arrow use the grey rod and the remaining red rod and connect them together using the orange connector and then connect the other one to the end of the red rod.

to fire put the arrow(red rod against the rubber band)in the track.then pull back and fire.
