How to build a wooden UFO???

I want to fool those "they are here"-idiots with a wooden UFO - to make fun of them.

How can I craft a wooden UFO???

It should look like a flying saucer...

Get a lathe. Find a nice small plate, copy. When done, throw. There you have it, a flying saucer made of wood. If you throw it hard enough or sneakily enough, you'll have a wooden UFO.

If you'd asked for a plate, yes, I could have helped you out. But a saucer, no.

Throw? Oh, no - to achieve proper UFO effect, you'd need to build a plate-hurler - possibly based on a trebuchet? Andy

Couldn't you just use a skeet shooter? Good distance, proper ufo type trajectory. For that matter, actually use skeet, paint some lights on it with flourescent paint etc etc etc......

Better yet, mount a few blinking battery operated LEDs on it......

I like it! Then you could be the hero who takes down UFOs with your

12ga. "No, honey, I'm not wasting time shooting skeet, I'm saving the world from alien invaders!" Andy

Friend of mine once played a prank on his uncle, an avid skeet shooter. Turned a few pieces of maple to the same size as a clay pigeon, then spray-painted them the same color, too, and slipped them in with the clays. Uncle got kinda frustrated when several failed to shatter, and had a pretty spectacular flow of colorful language.

You need to be even more pathetic than the "they are here" idiots?

I'd use pink or blue foam, it'll fly much better.

Sure am glad to know that if I ever travel down old Mexico way again those fine Police Officers will be there to protect me. Puff
