How to: Make a Jenga Pistol

created at: 11/30/2010

Nothing is more stressful than the shakes and tremors of the towering wooden edifice that is a great game of Jenga. All the middle ones have been removed, leaving that one on the side that if you just work quickly and carefully enough, you might be able to…

Shudder.

Matthias Wandel’s Jenga pistol, on the other hand, can knock out an entire level, dropping the entire structure, in less than 1/20 of a second.

Watch this video to see it in action:    

Matthias sells plans for $6.00, including templates, so you can make one yourself.

I’m really thinking about picking up a set. I have a few family members (those notoriously hard to get gifts for) that would really dig on this.
