Q&A for How to Make a Boomerang

Most of the time that means you're not putting enough spin behind it, or your airfoils aren't developed enough so you're generating excess drag across the wing, which will slow it down.

If made correctly, it should come back towards you after you throw it.

To sum them up, just mark the shape of a boomerang on wood, then cut it out, and give curves to the wood.

If you're asking about commercially made boomerangs, Amazon offers them for around $10 up to about $30.

Yes, it is. Use heavier wood to make the boomerang. Not too heavy, though, or it won’t fly at all.

If you follow the steps carefully and make sure your creases are good, it should work.

Do you see the diamond shaped crease? Put your finger in the line in the diamond and let it close up. It should turn into a triangle. Put the top flap of the triangle down toward you, and the end result should look like an L shape. The triangle should be smaller now.

No, they will just affect how fast it spins. It would be best to find a beginner template from the internet.

Yes, wood will work and sometimes people make them out of plastic. I like to use cardboard though. It always works fine.
