I bought this for my son to flip through for inspiration, and he wants to build everything! "All-Ballistic" in the title says it all. I mean, what tinkerer wouldn't be excited about building an enhanced mousetrap catapult? At 8 years old, my son could do some of these projects on his own. Many require more precision and guidance, but are still a good level for a joint adult-child effort. I love that all of the materials are simple, and am so grateful that resources like this exist to enrich my son's learning journey. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent book for budding engineers! *by J***A on Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2020* I've bought several copies of this book. Great gift for boy or girl. This and a bag of rubber bands and you've made any kids weekend! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Things to make from things you probably already have... *by M***M on Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2019* I've posted before about my constant hunt for books with projects that will interest the boys. Rubber Band Engineer: All-Ballistic Pocket Edition: From a Slingshot Rifle to a Mousetrap Catapult, Build 10 Guerrilla Gadgets from Household Hardware by Lance Akiyama looked like a good possibility and, after reading through the electronic review copy the publisher sent me through NetGalley, I'm convinced that this is a book for us.What do I love about it so much?The projects use things that we have around the house -- and the instructions include a list of suggested substitutes. So if you don't have a long enough rubber band, you can chain several together. There are a lot of paint stirrers and paper clips and pencils involved, as well as duct tape and a hot glue gun. I've got those things and the extras I'd have to purchase for some of the more complex projects (if they're not already out in the garage or barn) aren't that exotic or expensive.The book includes lots of clear pictures that show how the pieces go together and the projects range from very easy to what looks like a reasonable challenge.There are tips for adjusting the trajectory and force, and suggestions what to search online to learn more about what's involved, like "The Archer's Paradox." --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/121130356-rubber-band-engineer-all-ballistic-pocket-edition-from-a-slingshot](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/121130356-rubber-band-engineer-all-ballistic-pocket-edition-from-a-slingshot) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
