If you can't find those white plastic things, try this: I had some 14 gauge automotive wire lying around the shop. I cut a piece about 2 inches long, bend it in half, and looped it through the leather. It will then look something like the white plastic things in the video. Soak the rubber tube in alcohol and slip over the two wire ends and leave dry for an hour. Repeat for the second hole an cut tubing to length. The plastic coating on the wire grips the tubing surprisingly well. If I detect any slippage I may wrap it with a very thin string or perhaps some fishing line.
That jig thing you made is bad ass i will be askig for some info on its demensions so i may get to makeing one for my self I am very new to the manufacturing of sling shots I to believe that one day it will be a great experience and an asset for the dinner Plate some day sling shots are very powerful and quite as to guns even pellet guns reasonably the sling shot is a nice Hobbie to be getting in to and I do see how many peoples all over the world are in to this as a Hobbie and a sport nice job on the video brother
I am making a Hack Berry wood sling shot was thinking about the steel ball method to attach the tubing to the wood. Can any other material be used as long as is spherical? Wood , plastic , .....
When using a tree branch fork how long should each fork be and how long should each rubber tube be??? I tried to make a sling shot but its crap.. I think the tubes are too short and the fork is too long..
Onr of my plastic tabs keeps coming out of the tube (yes it is the correct tubing and the correct tab, it came like that). Is there any trick I can use to keep it in? Was going to try some silicone or even crazy glue, but I'm hesitant to do something, that might cause damage if there is an easier way to do this?
I'm writing this four years after the comment, but for anyone still wondering I think it's possibly affordable to get a heap of them 3 D printed. And if you're smart you'll start selling them to everyone else in the sport.
For those who are new to this sport please don't be a fool like me,befor you make or buy a slingshot please check with your local,state an federal laws to make sure that its ok to have one and not breaking the law....i promise to you that you will highly regret it if you don't
That is the way i pronounce it as well,,But,if we were to be technical about it,,it would be pronounced Sin 'ew..If it was proper too call it Sinyoo,,it would be spelled Sinewe...Or,,to avoid confusion and debate,we could just call it Tendon...
Thank you Jamie, I learned alot

DY Hong thanks for watching
Interesting how you used the jig. Thanks for the video, I learned something new. ;)
Thanks, I have not it without the jig. It's as hard as you think it would be.

How do they do it? Because it looks like it's threaded through itself?
Great video!!

The alcohol drys quicker than spit but yes they work
Slingshots are like tree houses. Fun part is building them. Afterward - not so much.
Show how to attach ends to pouch. Not using plug end pouch
Yep
Nice video
Just subscribed to your channel

Need dimensions for your tying jig. That's a good idea. Thanks buddy
Get your clamps first and lay out your uprights. The board is about a foot.

I have a slingshot play list. Start with where the forks are 4 fingers wide. I have found that works pretty well.

What part is the “plastic-tab” called? What would you searching you get one in Amazon?
I don't think anyone sells them. I reuse them when a factory tube breaks.
Onr of my plastic tabs keeps coming out of the tube (yes it is the correct tubing and the correct tab, it came like that).
Is there any trick I can use to keep it in?

A constrictor knot using a rubber band is what I would use.

Thank you sir I will try that!
It would be nice to know how to obtain those plastic rubber clips
No one sells them that I know of. You have to recycle them.

You'll be paying child support until the kids turns 18
where can you buy the white plastic tabs
SimpleShot has them.
Sinew is pronounced as sin 'u
can't catch the name of the cord you are using to tie with?
www.amazon.com/dp/B07FL95S7C/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_b6kFFbWPX4CAR
Why not just use soapy water for lubricant?
Alcohol completely evaporates, I don't use soap but I would think it would leave a residue.
What can I use instead of sinue
Dental floss
👍👍👍👏👏👏🐟🐟🎣🎣

When slingshots are illegal in your area, that's a good sign you should move.

Not sure what sinoo is but sinew is pronounced like “sin you” or “sinyoo”.
That is the way i pronounce it as well,,But,if we were to be technical about it,,it would be pronounced Sin 'ew..If it was proper too call it Sinyoo,,it would be spelled Sinewe...Or,,to avoid confusion and debate,we could just call it Tendon...
