     • We used to put candle wax outside old cotton reels put a rubber band through it and attach it to the ice cream sticks and you wind it up and the cotton reel moves by itself.

     • I can’t find anything about the kind I used to make, but you can youtube pen guns and find a bunch of other kinds. Some of them look dangerous to me, exercise caution

         • avoid rubber bands and go spring loaded is my advice…

         I guess I should go hunting for springs soon …
