Hi my name is Bob and I live in Ontonagon MI, I like the original design of your slingshot. I also designed my own slingshot I call it the thresher slingshot. After watching your video I am going to try to make one of my slingshots from acrylic, Thanks for the great idea!
Hi Tony it's Bob from Ontonagon Michigan,. I did a great deal of research on slingshots, and one of the areas I did research on was the speed of the slingshot, with one half inch clay pellet and 0.6 bands on my slingshot I can get over 300 ft per second.! By the way from the looks of your slingshot I would say that it weighs about 100 Grams. If your slingshot slips out of your hand and hits you in the face it will impact your head at around 800 pounds per square inch! It will take less than 1000th of a second to hit you in the face at full draw! So drill another hole in your slingshot and put a piece of 550 Paracord through the hole about 18 inches long and tie a good knot in it and always use the lanyard around your wrist. That way if the slingshot slips out of your hand it won't hurt you!
@mechanictony5324 Hi Tony, I used to do safety inspections at a shipyard in Ontonagon in the 1980s I seen accidents that would give you nightmares. Safety is for most on my mind, for myself as well as others Glad I could help you out and save you a trip to the emergency room! a friend always Bob
Hi it's Bob again, As far as tying your own bands and pouches goes get some simple shot band tying tape from simple shot, I've been using it for about 5 years i have never had a problem with it it's great band tying material, You can get 115 foot rolls for 4.00 have fun and happy shooting!
@@husaenhusaen-qi8be Hi there, I’m sorry, I don’t understand your question. Maybe, you are asking if the rubber stretches to 1 meter or to 80 cm ? The rubber in the video stretched to +-75 cm. Rubber size 180mm * 22 * 12 mm, and 0.7mm thick. Hope that helped Thanks
Very neat one

That's an awesome idea, why didn't I think of it...I guess I'll have to make a lanyard,
Thanks Bob

@@mechanictony5324 thank you! 👍
Will it hold such a strong pull force?
What if it break?
If it breaks, it will be the same as most slingshots...replace with new bands.
Thanks:)

I need one please
Rubber band is best
@@baharahmednaik1892 Thanks:)
I didn't understand...what is the reason for adding two layers of acrylic and screws?
It's like grips on a pistol.
I want to purchase it, can you sell?
@XmasCzech I like this one very much...not for sale,
Thanks for being interested
It is better to measure rubber M0.8 or 1m
