Glider Crossbow MKI Tiny Airplane Launch System

A nearly complete redesign of the famous q tip crossbow.

If anyone knows who is the actual original designer, I would like to give appropreate credit.

There is a thin line of support in the barrel part to break off, so you don't need any supports.

Fix the trigger with a M2.5 bolt and nut or widen the holes in the slicer to 3mm if you don't have M2.5s at hand. 😬

Use 2 common hair clips as bow. They should fit tightly into the slots without being glued.

Knit a nylon thread into the holes of the clips with a length that allows for some tension.

The rear sight can just be put into the corresponding hole, maybe with a drop of glue.

Pull back the nylon thread behind the lock and you are ready to shoot.

Place a glider in the barrel part right in front of the tensioned nylon thread and center the airplane's tail with the rear sight.

Hold level,

Let it fly!

3D print settings Print in 0.2mm layer height or finer No supports, there is a strip of support in the barrel part that shoukd be sufficient.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Grant Thompson from The King of Random made that, but at the time he used materials other that 3D printing, but someone else may have made a different version first, I don't know.

Thank you for the hint. This might be it. Was like 10 years ago. Very interesting story of Grant Thompson, but really sad as well.
