Introducing the second model in my Q-tip shooter series… The Q-Tip Crossbow! Simply pull back the latch until it clicks onto the trigger, load a one-sided Q-tip or toothpick, pull back the trigger, and watch it fly! Notes: This model will vary depending on filament. I used Bambu PLA basic which tends to be pretty stiff, so other types of PLA, especially cheap brands, may not yield as good of a result. Keep in mind that brittle/wet filament will be more subject to cracking than newer filament. With other models in this series, people have had good results with PETG, but I have not personally tested it. Make sure to let the model completely cool before using, or else the springs will deform and not be as effective.
