It really fires drinking straw darts and is immense fun
You can buy a wooden crossbow just like this for about £25 and wait for it to be sent to you, or download the instructions here and make it in 90 minutes from junk, with wood effect, right away! It's not much of a contest, is it. The superb firing action uses a rubber band and safely fires drinking straws (with flights to make sure they fly straight and true) for loads of harmless fun. The print out comes in two parts so you can make more than one. The instructions and a separate downloadable of the templates and wood effect pattern. The printouts are available in both A4 and US Letter version, just click on the size you want, to download it.
TIP:
Keep leftover straws from fast food restaurants, you never know when they might come in useful and amongst other things, they make great crossbow darts.

Posted by jolovesvlad - My son is only 3.5 so he is little young for this one... his Daddy however had a great time with it. We were in such a hurry to play with it that I chose to leave off the "wood"

Themed origami shirts
|
|
So you want to be a tailor and make some of the most beautifully pressed shirts in Town? Well, this is the Japanese art of paper folding (origami) with a new twist.
Dadcando shirt making paper craft couldn't be simpler, you don’t need to buy any special paper, and you can download our high quality printables, and get going with this project right away. The easy to follow instructions show you how to fold up a shirt from a rectangular piece of office printer paper.
Fold up the shirts and then use them as very original greetings cards, that are guaranteed to make a great impression, and show someone that you really care.
There are loads of neat designs on this site, but if you fold up a plain piece of paper you can design your own shirt. If you do design your own, please send us a picture or scan of your design so that we can see how good you are, we’ll put the best up on dadcando for everyone to enjoy. Learn the folds, and then next time you’re really bored at work or school, you can always make a paper shirt from that fax from Accounts, or that Post-it Note from your teacher.
