Gotta teach him the rules, particularly knowing what’s downrange. I knew a kid that built a rubber band powered cannon (not the office supply kind of rubber band, mind you) that fired a broom handle. He aimed at the woodpile, and fired, just as the next door neighbor popped his head up from behind. Fortunately it hit him in the forehead; a couple inches lower and they would have been calling the hearse rather than the ambulance.

Good start. Although, gotta be careful or he could go into the opposite direction and be into swords and japanime.

Look how flat it is down there. That’s a great field of fire!

Would it reach that car?
