    Are there more ways to make a rubber band gun?
    Community Answer
    Yes. There are many more ways to make one. A quick way is to carve a gun shape out of wood, then put a stick through, top to bottom, for the trigger, and a nock on the front of the barrel, to hold the band in place.

    Can I make a rubber band gun that use household items and not wood?
    Community Answer
    You can replace the wood with cardboard. The "trigger" thumbtack is optional, you can tape/glue cardboard on instead.

    Yes, you would have to make the gun longer though so the glider has some room to gain speed and not crash into the ground, but it would work.
