[@natedunlap9226]

love you vids don't stop plz.😊 It would be great if you made more mini contraptions. I love making your creations.

[@gretchendruliner5408]

Um, what kind of string? My son's string keeps breaking before there is any spring action with the tension.

[@kl4739]

[@acciaiomorti]

Andy is visibly older than in his earlier videos, but his voice never changed

[@sameyeam5582]

it would be wise, if making a stronger version of this to not allow the arms to make contact with the structure, when firing, as it can cause them to snap.

[@legolover57]

Thanks SOOOOOOOOO much! All my friends knew I wasn’t the crafty one and I showed them otherwise 😀😃😄😁😆😊☺️🤣😂😅😇🙂🙃😉😌😙😗😘🥰😍😚😋😛😝😜😎🤓🧐🤨🤪🤩🥳😏🤗🥴🤠😹😿😸😺😽😼😻😾

[@gunshotbanana2816]

[@seranss5570]

Mist K is A WEAPON MAN

[@ember9947]

You should make two videos a week one simple project and one a bigger project :)

[@callumharris2907]

Hey guys its Andy here. In this video I'm gonna show you how to make an attorney bomb. NICE! Materials you're gonna need are Lolly sticks, cocktail skewers and some hot glue.

[@Xenro66]

What'd happen if you used a stronger string, or more tension? Would the projectile fly further?

[@nachoala5105]

Yes it will but not too much or the popsicle sticks will break

[@happytownflashyt8829]

Very good!

[@mr.unitato7955]

really cool

[@Fischerr]

Hey can you give me a list of things I need for this im going to try recreating this for class

[@Jolsen002]

it has to be Andy there is lollie sticks

[@mist8k]

+Jolsen Always!

[@carlz0r]

+Jolsen Andy has taught me that you can make literally anything out of popsicle sticks, clothespins, hot glue, and string. In the year 2025, he will upload "How to build a particle collider" and those will be the only materials required.

[@iHateNoah]

+Mist8k can you make a pen gun

[@kaushalsingh697]

Awesome video..👍

[@georgiabrand6672]

AWESOME!!!

[@WhatWeMadeTeam]

Sweet build. I would like to build a full sized one!

[@the17kyd]

What We Made just replace the lollie sticks with planks of wood, and string with rope.

[@eliasevertsson4470]

Wow you sure love shooting things!

[@bigsmoke7759]

[@SekoKeko273]

Daaaamn! You're so genious! Love your vids 😍

[@origamisteam1825]

BRAVO!!!!!!!

[@tinamulquiney8460]

what's the best string to use for this project? My daughter used twine but it keeps breaking and she can't get the tension right?

[@bruhdupfish4386]

my string also kept snapping so i just doubled it up

[@jeeperchips1373]

thanks for that now I can use that for a reason

[@bruhdupfish4386]

i made it for a school project, i just wanted something that somewhat shoots, and it works, but i modified it to make it a little more easier for me, cuz i dont got the tools and it shoots like 2cm XD

[@Ivan-ek2cu]

I don't have these materials in my country.

[@rileyma4784]

what string did you use? mine isn't working :/

[@Plasticarmymanlover]

Why do they say ballistic catapult because ballista and catapults are two different things?

[@heyitzzan6366]

It was cool but can you make it shout farther

[@ef.9095]

FUS RO DAH

[@technounionrepresentative4274]

Corn Flakes in their tongues it means dovakeen (dragon born) FUS RO DA

[@poggers884]

[@Badmintonshotsetah]

amaging guy

[@rytis1436]

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice xd

[@Ginger_Rocks]

interesting

[@benedictwillcock7002]

technically, it is a catapulta because it shoots arrow-like amunition

[@unyb]

A catapult doesn't shoot arrows..

[@juicytendercheerios4005]

Andy is ballisticsquid

[@ef.9095]

HOW DID YOU KNOW?!

[@thewhatwhat12333]

[@mental3849]

Idk what a loli stick is, but where I’m from we call them, “popsicle sticks”

[@georgeaura]

[@technounionrepresentative4274]
