CXWQ.Good advice, but I swear I've heard someone was using ice cubes to make their darts.
Lots of people use the bowl of icewater trick, but CX is the only one I know of that uses the straight ice cube.
Good advice on the nail, I know I read it somewhere but it was at least two years ago. We just make holes with the tip of the glue gun, but that won't help any for pegs.

Don't forget to eat your meat based vegetable substitute children.

if you get a pin and somehow balance it upright on your skin with 100G weight on it it would probably hurt a bit but if you get a coin with a 100g weight on it it would not be painful unless you are really sensitive. it makes no sense to me now that i think about it but hopefully it makes sense to other people. and i do notice that this is going a little off topic, sorryAbout the flat tip dart/pain theory, think of it like this, the dome tipped darts are like doing a cannon ball in the water, it doesn't hurt to jump in, but a flat tipped dart is like a belly flop, it hurts like a mother, so, I think flat tips would hurt more, but again, that's just my theory.

Doing a cannonball hurts less than a belly flop because a more aerodynamic shape will cut through the water easier, rather than just slapping against it.if you get a pin and somehow balance it upright on your skin with 100G weight on it it would probably hurt a bit but if you get a coin with a 100g weight on it it would not be painful unless you are really sensitive. it makes no sense to me now that i think about it but hopefully it makes sense to other people. and i do notice that this is going a little off topic, sorryAbout the flat tip dart/pain theory, think of it like this, the dome tipped darts are like doing a cannon ball in the water, it doesn't hurt to jump in, but a flat tipped dart is like a belly flop, it hurts like a mother, so, I think flat tips would hurt more, but again, that's just my theory.
As for the pin versus coin thing, it's all about weight distribution. I don't think this can really be applied to nerf darts though, because the surface area of a domed tip isn't all that much less than a flat tipped dart. If anything, the domed tip dart will hurt more because it's more aerodynamic and will be moving at a higher rate of speed than a flat dart would.

Another method for quick cooling of hot glue is to buy some compressed air for cleaning computer keyboards. You turn it upside down and spray it at the hotglue, the gas inside comes out as a compressed liquid which is very cold. Also, there is some stuff marketed as a Gum Remover that you can buy. This shoots out very cold as to harden the gum so you can get it off easier. Either one works quite well, I used to use it often when using hotglue in mods as a temporary hold.
