Parts needed: 1in. pvc pipe 1ft. long
1in. spring 4 to 6in. long
1in. screws
scrap 2X4 (optional)
fishing line (any string will work too)
screw driver
metal rod (or small screw driver)
card board

Tools needed: hand saw or rotary tool
drill
drill bit slightly bigger than metal rod or screw driver
hot glue
hot glue gun
1in. drill bit (preferably a drill press)



Cut bottom of 1in. by 1ft. pvc at an angle



drill hole in the side of the pvc pipe 4in. away from bottom for the metal rod.


drill 1in hole in the middle of the 2X4

insert pvc in the middle hole so the bottom side that has been cut is 1in. bellow the wood and drill into the side of the wood to hold the pvc in.

hot glue a 1in. piece of cardboard on to one side of the spring. Then drop the spring down the pvc (side with cardboard facing upward).

Tie your fishing line (or string) to your metal rod (or small screw driver) and the other end to your screw driver.

then screw screws downward in the wood for stabilization.

push down on the spring with a pole or long screw driver
insert rod into hole to hold down the spring once held down
pull rod out of pvc and insert your ammo (ill be adding later on how to make good ammo for it)
jab claymore into ground then jab screw driver attached to fishing line far enough away so the line is tight.

when someone tripps the line it pulls out of the pvc which lets the spring go and push the darts out in a shot gun effect

Fix your grammar, don't use "u" in place of "you", fix your capitalization and add some pictures.

That's how you can make it better.

That's a good idea. Very simple. I like it. One thing I would do is tie a string from the back of the tube to the spring so that the spring does not launch out. This would be safer and it would make it easier to reset the thing. My other idea is to use something as wadding so that you could fill the tube up with shortie stefans. That would gauruntee a hit.
