Make a Cobra Weave Stick Bomb but be warned, your first ten minutes of starting the first five sticks is VERY frustrating, but stay with it. It gets easier and easier. If you fail at first, don't give up. Take another look at the problem like a true engineer and try again. Remember you'll need Jumbo Pop Sticks. Don't forget your safety glasses!
