I'd have to say that depends. Did you use the flexible K'nex
NavyBrony wrote: Nope, just plan regular K'nex. Used a few white 8-slotted pieces for the center support, a hell of a lot of orange, red, and gray straight pieces, and a non-stretchable line looped through a system of 4 gray wheel hubs to lessen the resistance.

Except of course, you can't really make a long bow very effectively. The first bow I attempted was a long bow, and the first test resulted in some broken pieces and nasty scrapes.

There lived in old Equestria
The Princess fair Celestia
Charged with moving moon and sun above.
She had no partner, nor a friend,
To aid her journey without end,
She despaired for she had no-one to love.
One night she returned to her room,
Her only friend midnight's dim gloom,
She sighed and sadly shook her head,
She opened her room's heavy door,
And was shocked right down to her core,
A young filly was sleeping on her bed!
The filly awoke with a sigh,
And opened her lovely green eyes,
And the Princess felt her heart start to melt,
The lonely time it was now past,
She had a friend now and at last,
Truly the greatest joy she'd ever felt.
Mane and fur were as dark as night,
They glowed softly with their own light,
The filly's eyes seemed to glow just the same,
Celestia gave her a loving smile,
And after thinking a short while,
Chose 'Luna' as this new dark filly's name.
With shadowed filly by her side,
She felt sadness fade and then subside,
Celestia knew right then why she had come:
To bring loneliness to an end,
To be both her sister and friend,
And raise the moon when she lowered the sun.
She taught her sister what to do,
And proclaimed "Luna, I trust you,
To share my duty and to do it right.
Half of this duty I now give,
And for as long as we both live,
I shall be the day and you are the night."
Uncountable years floated by,
The two sisters both shared the sky,
But soon envy darkened Luna's soul.
The envy seethed, bubbled and stirred,
To Luna wicked whispers purred,
And she felt its ever powerful pull.
"They don't even care for your toil,
Doesn't it cause your blood to boil?
Why bother doing the task, anyway?
You raise the moon after sun's fall,
But no one cares, no one at all,
They wait for your sister to bring the day!"
She ignored the words, or so she tried,
Malicious thoughts that terrified
For her sister was the one she adored,
She pushed the wicked thoughts away,
But they were strengthened day by day,
And stabbed her heart like a sharp sword.
It tore her soul, it slashed and screamed,
While awake and while she dreamed,
And the walls in her mind fell one by one.
When the final wall was shattered,
She felt that only she mattered,
She confronted her sister, the Sun.
"You're the only one they see,
There is no love given to me,
Next to you, I'm merely second rate.
I began to feel jealous of you,
But that feeling, it swelled and grew,
And now for you I feel nothing but hate.
I will force them to love me,
For I shall be all that they see,
I'll take away your sunlight infernal,
When ponies look up to the sky,
They will not see you, only I;
For I shall bring forth Midnight Eternal!"
Her hatred freed from its dark cage
She became Nightmare Moon and in a rage
She attacked her sister, death in her eye,
The two fought each other for hours,
And the use of their great powers,
Made both the sun and the moon fill the sky.
Nightmare Moon lost the duel in the end,
Celestia begged her stop, sister and friend,
But Nightmare Moon ignored her sister's plea,
With both a foul curse and a leer,
She swore revenge on 'sister dear'
If she ever found a way to break free.
With Luna now lost to her hate,
Her sister left her to her fate:
The only punishment that fit her crime,
Using her most powerful spell,
She made the pale moon Nightmare's cell,
Her prison forever and for all time.
Celestia took back the night's power,
And from Canterlot castle's high tower,
She again controls both night and day.
When she makes evening's moon rise,
It always brings tears to her eyes;
For she feels she failed Luna some way.
So if you hear dark envy speak,
No matter how strong nor how weak,
I pray you take this tragedy to heart.
Fight with all your soul within,
For if you let jealousy win,
It can tear friendships and families apart...
