Hey! This thing is still a Work in Progress.
Files, instructions, and other stuff might change!
Crosslock - 1 Hand Rubber-band Powered Crossbow with arrows
Description
Mad max called and said he wanted something that might help him kill rats.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
Instructions
VERSION 1.2 Uploaded
Some assembly required.
This 1 print Thing will fit on a 6" x 6" bed and can be proportionally scaled to a larger bed.
I suggest that you use acetone to glue the parts together. You may need to use a spring, or perhaps some small rubber bands during construction.
Please feel free to improve upon the design.
WARNING! Do not point at things that you do not want to damage or injure. This Thing is purely for entertainment purposes.
NEVER POINT AT A PERSON OR CRITTER!

FYI, looks like all of the parts aren't set on the same level. You have to print at 0.35 layer height for it all to rest on the build platform on the first pass. Anything smaller will print the arrows first on the first layer, then the rest of parts on the 2nd layer. Sadly, I don't know how to split STL's so that i could correct this.
Printing now, look forward to trying this out!
