article: Making a popsicle stick catapult requires a few supplies. 7 popsicle sticks Rubber bands A bottle cap from a gallon jug (milk jug) Hot glue gun Small objects to launch like cotton balls or marshmallows Stack 5 popsicle sticks on top of each other making sure they are neatly stacked. Use a rubber band on each end to secure the sticks on both ends of the stacks. Use the remaining two popsicle sticks to make the arm. Stack the two sticks on top of each other and secure them on one end with a rubber band. Make sure the rubber band is wrapped at the very end of the sticks. Pull the ends of the sticks that is not held together by the rubber band apart and insert the 5 stick base perpendicular in between them. Slide the five sticks between the two that are held together with the rubber until they are about one half inch away from the rubber band holding the sticks of the arm together. The base becomes the pivot point for the catapult arm. The two sticks will be separated in a "V" shape. Choose one stick to be the arm of the catapult and the other will rest on the ground with the five stick stack as stable base. Wrap a rubberband around the arm and base. Use the hot glue gun to attach the bottle cap to the arm of the catapult. Glue the cap to the end of the popsicle stick as a basket to hold your projectile. Place a projectile in the bottle cap to be launched. Gently pull back the arm of the catapult while holding the base for stabilization. Let go of the arm and the projectile will launch into the air. Angle the catapult to shoot in different directions.

article: Muscles need protein to repair and build themselves. The amino acids in protein are what the body uses to perform these tasks. Therefore, your body needs protein to build muscle over time. As a vegan, protein will come from plant-based sources. Remember that many foods contain protein, not just animal products. If you're trying to bulk up, you really do not need that much more protein than an average person. An average person needs 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. So if you weigh 120 pounds (54.4 kg), you need 43.5 grams (1.5oz) of protein per day. A casual exerciser, on the other hand, needs 0.5 to 0.9 grams (0.02 to 0.03oz) per kilogram of protein per day. So the same 120 pound person would need 27.2 to 49 grams (1 to 2oz) of protein per day. People who lift professionally have even higher protein needs. Always talk to your doctor or dietitian about the right amount of protein for you per day. It may be tempting to eat large amounts of protein to build muscle. However, your body does not need the extra protein. That is, it takes any extra protein and stores it as fat, which means that taking in more protein does not help you achieve your goal. If you are becoming serious about weightlifting, your body will need extra calories to gain the weight you need to build muscles. For instance, a male weightlifter who's just beginning needs about 18 calories per pound of body weight. So if you weigh 120 pounds, you need to eat at least 2,160 calories a day. Be sure that your calories aren't coming solely from carbohydrates. This is very hard with a vegan diet as so many foods that vegans lean towards are carbohydrate-heavy. That is, most plant-based proteins are only partial proteins, unlike meat and eggs. They do not contain all the amino acids needed to build muscles. However, when you combine proteins by switching what you eat during the day and adding variety, you can create complete proteins. For instance, wheat and rice do not have as much lysine, one amino acid, as other vegetable proteins, such as beans and peas. Where wheat and rice shine, though, is in methionine, another amino acid, which beans and peas do not have as much of. The point is to balance different types of vegetable proteins, such as eating both grains and and legumes some time during the day, to make sure you are getting the needed amino acids. Nut proteins can also help you balance your amino acids. Carbohydrates give you energy so you can workout. In fact, you need about 1,200 calories of a 2,000 calorie diet to come from carbohydrates. They key is to stick with complex carbs, such as whole grains, vegetables, and fruits. While limiting carbohydrates is hard on a vegan diet, choosing the right type of carbohydrates is beneficial. As a vegan, you do have a number of options open to you for protein. For instance, 1 tablespoon of peanut butter has 4.5 grams of protein, while 1/2 a cup of legumes has 9 grams of protein. A full cup of grains has 6 grams of protein. A cup of beans has as much as 15 grams of protein.

Write an article based on this "Dry fit two of the wider boards together along the long side. Determine how you're going to adhere the two boards. With the wood pressed together, use a pencil to mark three spots for dowels or biscuit joints. Use your biscuit joint drill to make notches at each mark. Apply wood glue to all three biscuit holes on one of the planks. Insert a biscuit into each hole and firmly push it into place. Add a little more glue to the top of each biscuit, then attach the two boards together. Optional -- add handles to the ends."

Take two of your four wider boards and place them together along the long edge. You'll end up with a square 9-1/2" wide, 12-1/2" long. Do this try run to make sure the cuts are even so that the boards come together to form an even rectangle. Repeat with the other two boards. These wider planks will be used to create your ends. Building this crate requires that you to adhere the two boards to make the ends. You have several options, including: Biscuit joints. The remainder of the tutorial will be using biscuit joints. Dowels Wood glue. Know, however, that this will not make a very strong box. Mark where you're going to adhere the boxes together on both blanks. For this tutorial, you'll use biscuit joints, though you can use any method you're comfortable with. Make sure you have three wooden biscuits as well as a biscuit drill. Three biscuit joiners for each end should be more than enough. If you're in a pinch, two will do. Like up the drill with your pencil marks and make a clean, quick cut with the drill. Repeat for the other 5 marks. One solid line of glue along the entire edge should be fine. Make sure each biscuit is snug inside the hole. Simply slot the biscuits into the slots on the other piece. Let the wood glue dry and your ends are finished. Use a rubber mallet to hammer the ends gently, but firmly, together. For the cleanest results, use a set of clamps to hold the two boards together as the wood glue dries. Now that the ends of the crate are finished, you can decorate them or add handles. You have several options: Using a table drill with a wide 1-2" drill bit, "punch" holes into each end to make a handle. Simply drill 3-4 holes in a small line to cut a handle in the wood. Using a power drill and some small screws, install two metal handles, like those found on cabinets, into the ends. If adding these handles, wait until the end to install them, as you'll need to lay the box down flush to the ground to finish it.
