this is instruction for 3 tipes of darts.

the first is the simplest , for it all you do is is get a bic pen and make a tail cone on the end of it out of poster board then tape it up and cut it to the size of the inside of the barrel then remove the cap and fire it.

this tipe is a little more complex all you need for it is a red piece of knex electric tape and poster board .all you do is make a tail cone as done above and put the tip in a pencil sharpener till it is very sharp.

for the third one you need the matariels for a nose cone and a about 1/8in thick dowel you need to cut the dowel to about 1 inch long pieces then make and tape a tail cone to the end of it. i fire mine out of a 1/2 inch cannon and they will go for over 200 yards!!!!
