We eat our own cooking. Inspired by the sheer anarchy of it all, my son made this in less than 4 minutes. Straw, pin, shoe lace. That is all. While my back was turned, he shot me. The pin pierced my jeans. It hurt. He was in stitches laughing.

Now, he and I have seen the real thing in the Ecuadorian Amazon. But this urban variation is ... perfect.

SpacePaintings.com founder Branden McConnell is the brains behind this clever puerile, projectile prank. For a guy that spends most of his time absorbed in art projects he makes a rad weapon!

This works better with cotton shoelaces instead of nylon, cotton frays better and is thicker.
