How do i make a boomerang with chopsticks?!
Answers:
Get a rubberband, a knife, and a nail file!.
The first step is to file down the edges of the chopsticks, to make them more wing-shaped!. Most chopsticks are either square or round; you want to take the top two corners off of the square ones, or file the round ones into a sort of tapered, pointed oval!.
Continue filing until you have flattened the bottom and you have a gradual arc up over and back across the chopstick width-wise!. Place a notch in the center of the back end of each chopstick, and one across the gripping portion at a 45 degree angle on each stick!. Place the rubber band in between the ends of the two chopsticks, line them up in a proper boomerang configuration, and wrap the rubber band through each notch repeatedly until it forms a tight bond!. You may want to reinforce this bond with glue or plastic tubing if it doesn't hold properly, but it really will give it more flex and help it fly its best if you only use the rubber band!. Try to get a smaller one, so that 2 times through each notch will create enough tension to keep it together throughout the flight!.
Finally, you may want to try to tip the wings a bit by curving the ends off and back (again using the file)!. This is not essential, but will give you the highest-quality chopstick-boomerang available, as well as increasing rabbit-killing potential by about 30%!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You might try tieing 7 or 8 chopsticks together lengthwise to make a small raft, do this twice!.!.!.Then get superglue and connect the two 'rafts' of chopsticks together to make a boomerang shape!. Now!.!.!. put some sort of glue in between the small air gaps in the chopsticks to provide lift!.!.!.!. I hope this helps!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
