CUTTING THE SKITTLES INTO SHAPE

Only an adult should perform this step.

Please use protective gloves and a knife with a stiff blade and teeth. A bread knife, steak knife or hacksaw blade will do the job.

Before you start, put the throwing stick to one side.It's easy to spot. It's the smallest roll and the only one that doesn't have a notch cut into it.
