r/slingshots

There was a carpenter who couldn't take a slingshot on the train. So he designed this model!

Take them apart and've got two sticks.

Put them back together and you've got a slingshot.

You can learn how to make it and thenbuild one yourself.

This requires pretty good skills - it's best if you're a carpenter.

The needle could be made of wood, that way it would be even more perfect.

Long time no see! Let me share my latest design with you

super simple! the essence of Chinese slingshots perfectly.

But here's my advice:

Make sure the branch material is sturdyit's best if it's dried in the sun.

Drill the holes and smooth them outmaking them smaller at the top and larger at the bottom, then fill them with plastic beads.

I really hope you guys can make it. I'm looking forward to seeing your creations.

Can hanger.

Needed to make a new can hanger as the last one had almost worn through. As I was tying it up I remembered I had some shrink tubing somewhere. Three layers of shrink tube later and we'll see how long it lasts. Destroyed 2 cans on the bounce and the added stiffness seems to have reduced incidents of the can getting caught in the catch cloth.

Lil Striker.

This hasn't been shot in a while and has an old(ish) bandset on it. Gonna shoot the bands out, throw an AK Velocity set on it and throw it back into rotation. This thing really does disappear in your pocket.
