How to Make an Inexpensive Flare Crossbow

This is a video on how to make a Flare Crossbow for around $15 max. This crossbow shoots arrows with steel wool on the end. Un like a match, steel wool wont go out when hit with big bursts of air. The steel wool is lit automatically by two peaces of tin foil and a 9 volt battery. The arrow burns bright and can fly around 40 feet depending on the strength of the rubber bands.
