Then put the two strips of rubbers into the two holes and tie with cord. Then put the two pieces of rubber around top of the fork and also tie with cord. Then it is like this (drawing). I like firing with it. Sometimes you would shoot a rabbit if you hit him on the head. You have to be careful in firing with it. This is the way to fire. (drawing)
