An enjoyable use of scraps

So I have been playing around trying to design my own 6-pack holder from scratch. I had a bunch of round pieces of scrap and was wondering what I could do with them…

NERF TARGETS!!!

Snidely Whiplash is awesome!

Good use of extra pieces

Excellent use of scraps! I think it’s the first target creations!

I also learned that if you do a spiral really tight in inkscape it prints a nice thick circle WAY faster than printing a jpg circle.

Now thats some useful knowledge right there about the circle. Also, sweet targets man. How hard are they to hit?

Depends on the Nerf gun you’re using, some are more accurate than others. If I were making them out of something other than scrap I probably would have made them a little bit bigger, but they are perfectly fine. If you make them too big and too easy, then you have to keep setting them back up. I like more of a challenge anyway.

er…I mean the kids like more of a challenge anyway…

I love that you used Snidely Whiplash as a target. classic villain.
