My top five all time favorite slingshot designs

Спорт

In this video I discuss my top five all time favorite slingshot designs. I do include some variants of some designs.
Most of the frames were purchased by me, or were part of a trade. Some of them were given to me as gifts.

    Benjamin Kepinger the frame is called the Fuggetaboutit and it is made by You’llshootyereyeout. He has an Etsy store, but I’m not sure if there are any on there at the moment. I know he recently moved and is still working on getting his shop up and fully functional. It’s worth reaching out to him through the various forums, or through his Facebook page, I believe it’s You’llshootyereyeout Bespoke Slingshots os something very similar.

    Well, I really haven't use them much, I had them on a box and just found then like a year or two ago. Also the handle is a bit uncomfortable when I use it, but I'm not sure if that's because of the handle itself or just me not knowing how to grab it, or maybe being a bit lacking on arm strenght.

    I guess you're right, altough just one really has room for reworking, since my first one was made with a branch that is way to thin to shape it using tools, it is basically a wooden Y with just enough material so it doesn't break, I did try giving it a little more shape by adding rubber bands as wraping for the handle. The one I bought on a flea market I bet can be improved since it has way more material to work with, the handle is thick, but after watching this video I can tell it was shaped a bit poorly, it was probably made more as a decorative piece more than anything, the rubber bands were good though, I just had to shorten them a bit to accomodate my draw lenght.

    Since we are speaking of Slingshot designs, I wanted to ask you something, by experience, how far apart do both ends (you know, the part where the bands are attached) have to be apart? Since the one I got I feel may have both ends a bit too close together, I may be wrong, but that does make me feel like it increases the chsnce of the proyectile hitting the shaft and bouncing rather than following the intended path, wich is why I usually prefer the slingshot to be wider.

    Thank you, my friend. You're very kind to give me these details. I started to make slingshots about 18 months ago, because what I could find here in Romania was rubbish. Of course I am just a newbie, but I am improving. I use to make the pinch 78-80 mm, but I also made some with 65-67 pinch. Maybe I will also post vids of my slingshots someday. Thanks, again. Gorgeous pieces.

    Regretfully most of these frames are no longer in production, or one of a kind. I would recommend looking at www.simple-shot.com for a Maxim variant or You'llshootyereyeout Bespoke Slingshot Emporium for the Fug or a few other designs. Cracked Pepper Catapults makes some of the frames in the video, though he goes in spurts as to when he makes them.

  • @richardpeterson3753
    @richardpeterson37536 жыл бұрын

    how about a video on those same frames, but cover your experience with aiming points, and with the different band setups? these are relitivly standard designs for more, I guess "professional" shooting for lack of better term. 90% of the frame is somewhat irrelivent in terms of aiming. the forks are what are important on that area, and we are seeing that they are all generally coming out with a similar profile. so what is optimal, or what can be done to make it more optimal? I'm thinking of designing my own for personal use, and trying to pay attention to the fork details. I don't know if my current frame is inferior, it is ment to use three tubes on each side of the pouch, but there is no means to run flat bands on it. this bugs me, I like having options. but most important I want an optimal sight, as I aim with a reference point on the fork. as does probably everybody else lol.

    Danielx1313 a good place to start looking for slingshots is SimpleShot.com for a Maxim. The Fuggetaboutit is available from You’llshootyereyeout on Etsy. That is where I’d recommend starting. Regretfully MetroGrade Goods is currently not selling slingshots. The other frames are made from G10 and are on the higher end of the price scale.
