PEN-PAPER PLANE $ LAUNCHER

So this is holiday season , i thought of making some thing fun that ,children can make and play on their own and not only that I involves all easily available ( at home ) items.So Lets START!! :)

Supplies

1. Pencil

2. Scale

3. Cardboard sheet (Thick Paper sheet will do)

4. Empty Old Pen.

5.Small cardboard box ( Tooth paste box will be good)

6.Pair of Scissors

7. Cutter/Blade ( Use cautiously)

8. Rubber Bands

9. Tape

To Create the Launcher

Take the card board box ( toothpaste or any other ). In the toothpaste you can see 4 flaps used to contain items in it . cut the broader ones ( both ) as shown in photo .Now cut slits on both the sides as shown in 2nd photo .

Note * Avoid Making large slits and too long slits as it sffects the rigidity of launcher ( Box)

Final Steps for Launcher

Follow the instructions in the photos . In case of any help feel free to comment .

Note * 1.the rubber band must be taken keep in mind the size and dimensions of the box .

Now to Design the Plane

You will need an empty pen use the backside ( longer one ) . Now on a thick sheet of paper (or card board ) Cut the wings of the plane as shown in the photo. Now cut small strip so that it would go inside the pen ( as shown in second photo )

*NOTE :The dimensions of the wings must be according to the pen used .

Final Step for Plane

The wings should be attached to pen as shown in the first photo . The bigger wings which were stuck in pen , must be sticked properly , here i have used brown tape so that it is clearly visible. similary do this for all the wings.

Your PEN-PAPER PLANE is also ready !!!

Ready TO PLAY !!

Finally with launcher and Plane it would look like this. More over to get large range you just need to stretch the band more .
