How to Make a Ziploc Bag Gun

You can launch projectiles with numerous devices, including bottle filled with carbonated water. But when you want to keep things simple, you can make this "gun" out of a Ziploc bag.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Ziploc bag
• Small item projectile
• Pen

1. Fill a Ziploc bag, a large freezer bag is best, with air and zipper the bag shut. Make sure you don't lose any air as you close it.
2. Push in one of the unzipped corners of the bag. Make sure the corner is indented well and that the air is still fully there.
3. Place a small item in the corner. Try with a pen and quickly make a hole. The hole has to be small in the corner so the air doesn't leave the bag too fast and you will still have impact.
4. Smack your hand down on the Ziploc bag and the item will shoot across the room at full force. You have to do this immediately after you have made the hole without hesitation. Don't aim it at anyone as it could be dangerous.
