I used to make these long ago. Cutting the cones, put a wood dowel in the cone in the tube, then razor cut against the dowel right to size. Also if you did cut to much cone, you can use tape to rebuild or widen the cone. These are powerful I hunted with mine using big nails. Glass breaking use ceramic tips, like tile chunks.
Two suggestions from improvements from me. Overall this is a nice video, I really like how well you explained the process. 1)Use plastic instead you can use plastic folder sleeves and make cones with that stuff, it lasts so much longer. My darts last years with the plastic and they don’t get soggy when you shoot so you can shoot the dart more than 5-10 times. 2) Use hot glue instead of superglue, it absorbs the shock a little better so darts don’t go all bent when shooting at a hard surface, dries faster too. 3) Use a longer dart shaft, this will give more make the darts more accurate and penetration will be a bit better, this will make your darts slightly slower which is a alright trade of I think. You can you that kind of springy wire on umbrellas/bike spokes, wooden skewers/dowels, metal skewers if you remove the handles. These are merely suggestions but your darts would be great for a beginner who is just ‘testing the water’ in blowgun shooting with a blowgun made out of something cheap like pvc pipe.
I usually cover the outside with electrical tape and the inside walls with super glue and put a very small piece of toilet paper in there so it sits circular
I am surprise that people still using paper for dart cone in America. Duct tape or rigid plastic bags. If yo make a 100 darts to go hide out in a very dense tick jungle, those paper darts cones will fall apart in days. I cant imagine living in or close a jungle without a well design powerful blow gun. It is the best survival weapon for fish, birds and animals.
Thanks for teaching me this! Now, on a totally different and unrelated topic, please make a video on how to make a very deadly poison which, coincidentally, might also be used to add onto blowgun darts and then please also provide the information on where one may find Adolf Hitler's remaining family members. All for research purposes, of course

Use a layer of electrical tape and your darts will last a long time. A small ball of cotton wool in the cone helps keep it very round.
Excellent, thank you!
bile spokes knitting wool elt tape
wind the tape with wool streamers
This video is a very good start.
Thank you! Wish I had more time. ;) But i guess we all do.
Excellent making procedure .
Thank you!
Scissors= sizzers
The "c" is silent. Great information here.
Edit: Try bicycle spokes. They're stainless and have the extra weight you're looking for.
Good tip! Also, thanks for the pronounciation update. :)
Skizzers?
I usually cover the outside with electrical tape and the inside walls with super glue and put a very small piece of toilet paper in there so it sits circular
greetings from Dudapest!
nice
How accurate are the blunt 'Glass breakers'?
Super accurate, I was quite surprised. Most of the weight is in the blunt tip.

Hungarian,slovakian or austrian side ?
Austrian side.
Great video I made cones just like that I used a glue gun.
thx - glue gun works even better!
Very quiet, can shoot birds, fish, animals and wont draw attention from far away. If you reading this, then buy or make a good one.
i also say skissors
These nuances are tough for a non-native speaker. :)
Waste of a good bottle of beer.....

Copied from The King of Random!
No, I did not. Actually, Joerg Sprave gave me the idea with the ear cones.
@@woodrick1 Oh okay
Non serve mettere le biglie all' interno..sbilanciano il volo e basta
True - but for short distances, they drastically increase the kinetic energy.
