    I made a badass section of table for bandset build and tying that is removable from my workbench that folds up and tucks into my "weapons satchel" if need be. I was having such a good time making custom bandsets and badass double layered multi-type leather pouches for my current ammo situation which is 5mm bearings, 10mm bearings, .50cal ½" big steel balls, marbles, and real neat plastic beads id say about 9mm with a hole thru the center for kids to make necklaces from the craft shop, whats cool is due to that hole thru the center they make a intimidatingly horrific whistle type sound while in flight. They sound like the sound XF that would be used for a bow n arrow released by a marvel character.. wicked as hell sounding I thing and they fly true and fast with relatively light bands. Anyway I made 2 versions of each bandset one short anchor point draw, and one half butterfly long pull... About to go outside in a bit to raise war against some unsuspecting cans, bottles and whatever else gives me funny looks or any type backtalk lol
