The trigger mechanism is the most simle yet ingenious way to make one that I've seen. I'll take this inspiration when I make a crossbow in the future. 🤙
That is what is called a "one piece mechanism" which means that strain is more or less 1:1. This is not desirable for anything with serious power behind it. If you intend on making something with a draw weight higher than 20-30lbs, you will need a "two piece mechanism", and for anything over 100lbs, you should aim for a "three piece mechanism". Each additional part helps reduce the strain and reduce the trigger pull weight.
This creator should have born 50 years ago. That was the time when i was 12 years of age shooting birds with a catapult powered by rubber band. After several shots the rubber band snaps off. It was a hassle to repair it on site. I salute you sir by showing this awesome technology of creating this wonderful device. Good job sir 👍 Warmest regards from Borneo bumi kenyalang.
Really cool design. It's mostly held together with superglue, but most of the parts aren't under much tension, so that's fine. But I don't know how long the thin strip of metal in the gravity feed ammunition mechanism will last. Very attractive finish put on it too!
Two flat wooden parts stuck together with super glue , become pretty much one piece. I can assure you that you wouldn't be able to take that sling apart. No way.
@@marcinradziejewski6086 Yeah, but you don't need to take apart the entire gun to replace the bits that would need replacing. It's fine if most of it is now a solid object. Only the "strings" for the slingshot are likely to need replacing anytime soon, and that's an easy fix.
Clever guy, wonderful simple looking but clever design & great aesthetics. Best luck, I hope you're channel grows quickly - maybe a bit more info for others to recreate, rather than just watch... Thanks
Very nice design clever and creative looks good if there is a quantitative standard how to make it would be great hope the author try to go in that direction thanks for sharing
Aside from the fact using CA glue to stick together pieces of wood isn't the best way to do it (there's also wood-exclusive glue that works better), isn't putting CA glue in both pieces, letting it dry for some seconds, then strongly pressing both pieces against each other a bit better? That's all there is to question about this build, amazing job
Some suggestions for both the audience and creator, dont use superglue/crazyglue. Use an actual wood glue, else in a few years with constant use, the layers will seperate due to moister and temperature and because those glues are extremely brittle. Also regarding the trigger system, it would be more reliable to put the trigger on a pivet and use an actual spring. Especially because buying a strong spring is often cheaper then buying a piece of spring steel, cutting it down and drilling holes into it. Finally, if you don't know what you're doing, the friction from working the steel will destroy the temper of said spring steel, and it will become less springy and more brittle.
a spring inserted into the magazine and guiding the bullets to the magazine's ejection would make the design somewhat more effective. Just a little Tipp. Thank you for the video 😉
You are a born weapon designer. You should seek a career in it. Selling your designs to mass producers in china will yeild alot more money than youtube. There is a huge demand for Non-licensed Lethal weapons. Likes bows and slingshots. Your designs are on another level. You can make millions from them, alot more than youtube
I have a question regarding how strong this slingshot is, would you happen to have rough stats like feet per second, and a rough estimate of how much effort goes into pulling back the rubber band. I am also interested in how far away it remains accurate. This is just personal curiosity at how effective this is as a design compared to standard slingshots. I am aware you could increase the power with a stronger rubber band, but just for curiosity sake, as it seems something like this could make a good starter slingshot due to being able to incorporate a site if it remains accurate at moderate range
I thought it looked like thin CA. I’m utterly fascinated you haven’t managed to glue yourself to your product with so much liberally applied CA glue. That stuff is a menace. Kudos. 😊
I can hear someone say" hahaha, welcome to my slingshot channel and today I made a gun with slingshot mechanicals. LET ME SHOW YOU ITS FEATURE! ha ha ha ha".
Got recommended a jewel crafting dude, amazing video. Calm voice with calm music in the background. Then i get recommended this. No talking..just loud obnoxious sounds and annoying music...lol
I had to drill into myself! Thats so awesome. I thought i was the only weird one. When i smashed my thumb i luckily was in my machine shop. So i chucked up a 1/16 drill im my drill press and drilled right through. The way your thumb nail makes a chip is incredibly similar to delrin.
Hi fella you really do some awesome work, thank you for your channel. Im curious do you have plans for what you create and if so where can i get them as i would love to build some of your wonderful inventions.
A few issues I can't help but wonder about: 1. That CA glue can't possibly be strong enough to hold this all together long-term. Have you had these break? 2. The CA glue also soaks into the wood fibers. Won't it make the finish splotchy? 3. The way you secure the rubber tubing to the screws looks like it's just waiting to come flying off.
@@diycrossbow My future will be cabin in the woods at north, there will be bears, so these slingshots might be ideal defence, and a funn hobby as well out there. I just cant stand cities anymore, i gone introvert.
Okay remind me never to get in a guerrilla war with you. Put you in a jungle and a week later you'll have a small arsenal. Always a bad sign when on patrol, the trees start making nerdy engineering puns.
Please provide design plans. Every part with length, height and width. Because we do not have tool to cut wood and if plan are available we can ask a workshop to cut the parts. I am from Pakistan
What liquid glue do you use in your blog? I will truly appreciate if you can give me an answer to this! I’ll visit this blog so I can see your response. Thank you

Thin metal as a trigger is strong. But the rubber no. The rubber can change if broken

What glue do you use? I am very curious because it seems super liquid and allow you to basically assemble before you glue
Cyanoacrylate
thin CA glue ''AKA Superglue'' Fast to assemble but mostly breaks apart once it drops, should always use a wood glue on wood.
