Semi-automatic: a beginning...

Why am I designing a printable semi-automatic rubber band gun?...

I enjoy working on things that have an immediate purpose and a higher purpose. The immediate purpose is that this was the gift Santa never got me. The higher purpose is that it will serve as a proof of concept that software engineering practices can be carried over to mechanical engineering. Now that I have a 3d printer I want to see if I will be able to quickly prototype a small subset of the overall mechanical functionality, test it, and repeat.
