The common CD or a compact disc is made out of plastic material. It is in fact two plastic round sheets that are glued together and in the middle there is a plastic film that can store data on it. It doesn’t seem dangerous until now right?

But give it a little spin and it will fly like a bullet and it will cut everything in front of it. Well not everything that is only a figure of speech but it will seriously harm you if it hits you in the right place. Today we have one guy registered on YouTube by the name of JZSlenker that will use the spinning power of the CD and he will assemble a CD Cannon. On a wooden board he mounted a hand held electric saw, it is small but it has high rotation speed.

So the two rubber wheels are attached to the saw and on the wooden board and in front of the two wheels there is a CD holder with an electrical arm that pushes the CD in the two wheels. So the wheels are spinning at high speed and the CD goes in the middle. Look out for a flying CD towards you. Check the rig here:
