Interesting design. Very simple yet effective. The rubber bands I had weren't stretchy enough and the whole thing collapsed under them, but I fixed that by just cutting each rubber band in half and tying them together to get larger ones. Just a tip for people who have small or not very elastic rubber bands.
My kids (both 5) and I have had so many hours of fun out of this. Very functional design. High accuracy on target practice even for them. One of the very few designs in all knex toys that I have found that you can really use after making them! Thanks.
My 7 year old son and I made this and it worked! Very cool :) He's been playing with it all day. The first few pictures were a little confusing for us but we figured it out eventually. Thank you so much!!!!
I built this but to improve it I added a pencil and taped it with the orange thing now it can cut cardboard and lots and lots of shoe boxes Rest In Peace 🙏🙏🙏🙏
my crossbow WORKS! I love it good that i got abox full of k'nex for christmas THIS IS EPIC I LOVE IT GUYS THIS WORKS but for the trigger it was hard so i did it a few ties and i did it awesome!!!!!
I made a similar cossbow but with a different loading mechanism. I had several large rubber bands working together to increase it's power. I was using the long grey rods which easily pierced cardboard, then I upgraded to skewers and it pierced through several cm thick corkscrew board. Since I made this as a little kid I was ordered to take it apart because I might accidentally maim my sister or worse lol.. Try using the 8 piece white pieces or something similar and firing through the 'hole' in the middle. Gives you precision accuracy and able to use long thin projectiles :)
I made my crossbow with one extra yellow link with it it is very powerful using rod locks in the front of the crossbow you can make your crossbow more sturdy so it don't break when you try to shoot it if you guys don't know what Rod locks are go on Google and type in knex rod locks that makes this crossbow really really powerful
Awesome! I actually modified it to not snap when I put on the rubber bans that I have. I have also built an amo case for the bullets and it hooks on my belt loops. Can I make a video for the amo case that holds the crossbow amo?
Took me and my brother half an hour to build but it was amazing and totally worth it. But my one concern is that you were ridiculously off on the material count.😁👍
Can u make a better tutorial because instead of saying make this then attack that actually show us how you make it because I have to restart the whole thing because I never say what u did
Made this when i was a kid. Found it recently and was able to find the same video i mustve watched all those years ago. Thank you

I love these instructions. I built it 5 times so far
1:39 that step was evil
Tell me about it!
Ikr
Lol the hardest step
It. Hurt. So. Bad.
@Dyllinn Johnson same lol
his numberes arent far off, im so good at following instructions, i didnt even need to stop the video :D
Not even to get the parts?
This was an absolute blast and it works really well!!!
this is the best one I found! I had to knot two rubber bands together but it turned out the way it should have. thanks for posting this!!

my crossbow WORKS! I love it good that i got abox full of k'nex for christmas THIS IS EPIC I LOVE IT GUYS THIS WORKS
but for the trigger it was hard so i did it a few ties and i did it awesome!!!!!
thank you very much for this brilliant idea! My son and I had lots of fun. It works perfectly.
This was so easy, thank you so much I would totally do this twice if I had the time. :)
epic!
only problems: part count was wrong and the gun likes to self destruct.
add something with a bit of weight to the front of the knex 'arrow/ammunition' so it goes in a straight line instead of spinning forward
Me and my friends just built it and it works thank you so much
STEFAN I REALLY LOVE UR BOW IT IS INCREDIBLE I WOULD HAVE NEVER THOUGHT OF SOMETHING LIKE IT :-) :-) 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😻
All knex tutorials: *attach like so*
So true
Thank you for making this video this is a very cool crossbow I really liked Building it's really cool thank you!!
It's a great design and pretty easy to build (giving it a 5/5)
Great toy. Shoots far.AWSOME TOY💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌

yeeeaaaaahhh.....i definitely read that all
me my self likes k nex and crossbows so I like this creation
THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!SO HAPPY IT WORKED!
thanks so much i now can show it off to my bros. :P
0:58 oh bloody hell! But jokes aside this is an awesome crossbow!
This is the best thing to build
i actually built it thank you so cool
Carlos Trejo Cool you've built it
+Stefan Schipper yea but I broke it because it got bring and I wanted to build something else
This is so good I built it like 9 times great job but it is so hard to attach the blue rods to the yellows.
Yeah I know right. Same with me dude.🤪
I like it thank you for the instructions
i made it and it is so freaking cool
Added a pistol grip and a finger trigger as well as a spot to hold extra ammo 🤣 fantastic build
My thumbs hurt now, but really cool crossbow

Lmao the rubberband i tried putting on sent the back mechanism flying
good
Awesome! I actually modified it to not snap when I put on the rubber bans that I have. I have also built an amo case for the bullets and it hooks on my belt loops. Can I make a video for the amo case that holds the crossbow amo?
how many times can you spell ammo ... zero times i guesa
+Logicaled gaming guess
best instruction ever
@Stefan Schipper can I use this cross bow in one of my videos?
+Tyler Bosse Don't make an instructional video about it and put a link of my video in you description and you are good to go
Thx. I have another question, can we work together on youtube?
HOW THE HELL DID YOU GET THOSE BLUE BITS IN
Very helpful. Sick. Great accuracy as well
Great design but need better angles of the photo I struggled figure out where the pices went
where do i get all these parts ;-;
i dont reccomend doing this. It is confusing and i got a lot of bruises trying to put stuff toghether.
Goed gedaan! Heb hem gemaakt
What size of rubber bands are they
I did a few things to mine so it has a thing that goes on the back, with it I shot my thumb but it is powerful!
2:02 six when there are only five
thank you, made an annotation
What's the music in the background of the video?
this is great, and because i dont have millions of pieces, buildable
Awesome works great
mine doesn't work ;( the green links don't hit the white circles right... I must have done something wrong because everybody else's
seems alright
2:01 take 6 and attach like so
Me: *"THERE IS ONLY 5!"*
I am going to try to make this when I get home from school
Sick gun 😎
I think it is so cool how are you drawings of what the pieces are
Took me and my brother half an hour to build but it was amazing and totally worth it. But my one concern is that you were ridiculously off on the material count.😁👍
Thats bow is very good i ♥ it
Cool. This crossbow is frickin awesome. Keep up the good work man. :-)
Ist real thanx its working so nice
thnx man werkt perfect !!!!
thick or thin rubberbands
OMG thx so much it's Amazing
Childhood memory's
man check your number of pieces twice I had to search all those pieces again
its great apart from when i put the elastic band on it bends way to much and when i load it it snaps
use two elastic bands knotted together (loop one through the other and back trough itself) ;)
Thank you I killed a stick man and I'm wanted for muder
Same
Oh by the way did you mean "Take FIVE greens and attach like so?" and not six.
I remember this #childhood memories
I'll use it in my vid and give credit to you for the design
This is so awesome
That's so cool!😃
Amazing work
add a short double sided rod at the end of the connector and it works more like a gun
i made it and it's awesome
Thank you this is awesome
Omg its so good
wrong number of pieces at the beginning
That's great!!! Awesome
thats realy cool
love it
How do u shoot it
that youll have to figure out
I MADE IT!!! it shoots over 15m I am impressed
Can u make a better tutorial because instead of saying make this then attack that actually show us how you make it because I have to restart the whole thing because I never say what u did
AMAZING
How do I use trigger
JJ Joseph pull it.
Awesome!!!!!!!!
Darn, I don't have the light blue circles :/
You don't NEED them. You can also take one grey part and turn in 90 degrees and then click it.
Thanks! I was going to try out a few different pieces to see what would work but this saves me the time.
2:18 you need extra pieces
No.. you dont?
it breaks when i try to string it up with the rubber bands
Then take bigger bands
@stefan schipper i laughed when i saw this 0:31 but hey you did a lot better then i would
work on the design. it needs more mass to be functional.
incorrect piece count you did almost double of what it said at the beginning
Uh song name plz??????????
I built that
I do it!
song name?
Your numbers are FAR off. I didn't have enough so i had to go out and buy ANOTHER pack because your numbers were wrong.
That's not his fault you didn't have enough
ahah!
Yeah wot?
YEAH WHAT?
Danie Thurston, he wasn't off. You didn't have enough pieces
Cool
Next time can you explain it
