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?

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.

Crafting the wooden UFO won't be too difficult. If small, you might try
a lathe. For larger ones, you might want to look into bent lamination.
The real challenge is going to be building a matter-antimatter
propulsion unit out of wood. Antimatter wood is a bit difficult to find
on this planet, but you might consider piney-wood. Some folks on here
consider it the anti-wood when it comes to furniture projects.

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.

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