Sirius Yrondi commented on my Rubber Band Powered Car #11 that his project was limited to 2 rubber bands. That inspired me to have a go at a small car again (checkout Rubber Band Powered Car #5 for my previous attempt at a small car that uses 2 rubber bands. /watch/)UuOgQ0cpr1CpO .

Several barbecue skewers
Short length of flower cane (previously I called these garden canes but I see the label says Flower Canes)
Drink straw
Paperclips
Rubber Bands
Sticky tape
The main tools are
Hot Glue Gun
Craft knife
Scissors
I also made a hot wire tool for cutting foam. I may make a short video on making this. There are plenty on YouTube already but I might do my own.

Generally my projects are for my grandchildren to enjoy. OK, I enjoy them too. If anybody else likes them, that is a bonus. I like to keep my work as simple and basic as possible so that it can be copied easily and improved by anybody who wants to try themselves. I recycle or repurpose items rather than buy new and when I do buy I like to keep it cheap.
