During World War II, GIs in the field built really amazing simple radios to listen too. These were made with materials that they could get their hands on and were small enough to carry around in a big pocket. You can modify this design if you want to set it up so that it’s tuneable too! To see all the plans, go to makezine dot com slash podcast!
In this latest addition to my origami series, I will show you how to make a paper boomerang that really comes back!! To check out my throws, go to 1:02 (click here) in the video.

In this tutorial, I will explain How to turn a regular sheet of printer paper into an origami boomerang… well actually 2 origami boomerangs!! You will need a simple Letter Sized sheet (8.5 x 11 inches) or an A4 size paper. No tape or anything else is required.
I also explain at the end the way we must position the boomerang in order to throw it properly. If it falls to the ground check to see if:
1) It’s upside down, refer to 12:40 for the proper way to position it before throwing–it does matter.
2) You may be angling it too far down, which can cause it to not come back all the way–try angling it upwards at an angle.
3) It’s made the correct way and looks just like mine. It takes a bit of practice, and make sure to spin it really fast. Check my “Super Boomerang” Video (Link above) for another demonstration of how it’s thrown.
This will keep you busy for hours and is fun for all ages. Once you show off your boomerang to friends, they are definitely going to want one! Please refer them to this video if you enjoy!
Hope that everyone had a great break and got to spend time with the family It has been a great year!
