What
is a frame
bomb? In short,
a frame
bomb is a Popsicle stick bomb, grenade, or flyer. They are craft stick
structures temporarily held
together by the tension from other sticks in the same form. No glue or
adhesive
is used, only sticks and elastic energy.

The Point: Fun!
Arguably
the coolest
thing about frame bombs is that, as the name suggests, they explode!
Since only
tension holds each unit together, if you chuck one it will blast a
(harmless)
shower of wood over the area! Then you can recollect and build it
again!
|
| ...and
Astound Your Friends!
With a
little
training, you can build almost anything out of a single material. Just
reach
into your pocket and, with a blur of fingers, pull out a full-size
guitar, a
castle, or a thunderbolt! There are an unlimited number of frame bomb
shapes
with a huge variety of uses and sizes.
