Well done! If you keep practicing, you will soon exceed 100 Joule. More importantly, you will be able to hit from longer distances even when using powerful bands. Anyway, thanks for the mega shoutout! I enjoyed our email exchange and I hope that you will be a slingshot fan forever (that stuff is addictive).

Slingshots have been used for centuries for a reason. I once heard of this guy who could tell you which small rock he'd hit, far away, and he did. His accuracy was phenomenal. He also could hit extremely well with a sling, using stones as ammo. He often hunted birds using that, hitting them in the head. This was back in the 80s in a country where such things were legal, but that may have changed since.

Slingshots have been used for _millenia._ It's earliest variant, the sling, is known to be used as far back as 10 000 BC. The Catapult is another variant of the slingshot, designed for larger projectiles, obviously.

hey just a small tip about penetration. In the common ballistics industry, getting past armor or tough materials isn't about size or weight of the round and bigger does not always mean better. Armor piercing rounds are simply faster than the normal variation of that ammo caliber. If you do want something that can crack bone or penetrate as deep as possible, try using the smaller ammo with the larger bands or adding more bands. Larger ammo will only make the cavity caused by impact to be larger.

Not exactly how penetration works with firearms. Speed, with nothing more, does not equate to armor penetration. You want three things. A pointed projectile,. This is to insure that, on contact with armor, the force is focused on the smallest possible surface area. A fast round. This, as I'm sure you are aware, is to ensure the round passes through with enough force. Lastly, you want the round to have a hardened core. Usually, but not always, this is a hardened steel core. In more exotic rounds this could be tungsten or even depleted uranium.

Pro tip for when you're new to organic grinding. Draw on your part, the sections you want to remove. And start small. First cut, 5 mm line on the two faces where you have to remove material. Exactly like topography lines. And then you follow those two lines to take out the corner. Once you're done with that around the track, you draw the next ones, and repeat until you have the shape you want. It's... grind by numbers (like paint by numbers).

I think that David's slingshot wasn't rubber based, it probably was that round n round overhead with ropes instead of the rubbers. Those things have serious potential, I compared it with AK-47s when I was younger, and it gave it serious competition, it easily achieved 240 yards with lethal sizes, but obviously we were doing it just for fun as an afternoon activity, if one were to take it this seriously, I think we would have some serious slingpower.

"mastered" is a bit of an exaggeration but it's still very impressive

Something I know from archery that probably works on this is pointing the slingshot to the sky, pulling the band back and then releasing it when you drop down towards the target. It allows you to use your back muscles to pull back the band easier. (DISCLAIMER: Don't do this if the area you're aiming at has people or someone's property on it.)

​@@MikeShake you don't need to point up to the sky, its actually discouraged in archery due to the safety issues. You can start with both your hands just above your head, then bring them down to shoulder level. When you do it this way, naturally you'll be using your shoulder muscles. Alternatively, if you want to maintain your current method, the only thing you really need to change is thinking of the pulling action as a rotation instead of a pull. When you pull, you naturally use your triceps. Instead focus on the position of your elbow, and rotate it to be in alignment with your shoulders. Your body will then engage the back muscles instead.

If you ever decide to make a new slingshot, I would use layers of Baltic birch plywood and some kind of fabric with resin (either woven polyester or carbon fiber, or even paper would work really. Mycarta is popular for knife scales) to layer between. Also stabilized wood like desert ironwood is extremely durable. I used to use a slingshot to hunt/play paintball with, and you could get even more dangerous with cast lead alloy shot of a smaller diameter. Lead alloy is extremely dense and heavy and doesn’t deform when penetrating. Also, consider making the arm brace portion of your slingshot out of a lightweight folding rifle stock. The slingshot doesn’t need to be straight because it’s aimed from your eye to the yoke and drawn from the yoke towards your eye(ish). Allowing the slingshot to fold down would make it much more comfortable to transport and use.

I think you'll make Joerg Sprave of the Slingshot Channel extremely proud 🎉

That double eye shot was peak comedy. Btw if you counter sink those screws on the handle and fork it'll look absolutely sick. You can even plug it when wood again if you wanted to hide them.

also he's using all that protective gear (is that a bulletproof vest?) and no gloves! This looked scary to me, pulling that sling with bare fingers, had it suddenly detached from fork (or if fork suddenly broke) while stretched, it could make quite a mess. I understand the instinct to protect eyes, head and internal organs first, but hands are actually quite useful too, and I think by far more likely to get accidentally damaged.

Hey Mike! Sanding takes forever yes, but it takes even longer when you start at 220 grit! Start with something like 80 or 120grit, the lower the grit, the easier it will be to remove the tool/machine marks, I use 80/120 then 240, 400, 600 etc. start with a lower grit to save time👌
