    Great DIY project and demonstration! Great camera work! Great non-musical video! Great starting the video without a 10 minute preamble and without interrupting the work to your express your feelings for selecting the different materials, which welder and feed rod size and type. I learned a lot by watching how you built it and you finished with a link to a relatable site. Bravo and Thanks!!

    Interesting video - brings back memories since the very first thing I learned to build as a young boy - maybe 7 or 8 years old, was a sling shot. Finding a suitable 'crutch' in a tree branch was step 1. Finding suitable rubber from discarded car tire tubes from a local garage was step 2. Acquiring leather from an old shoe tongue was step 3. Cutting the rubber bands was tricky - if you did not run the scissor properly, the edges had jagged Z shaped nicks that would tear as soon as the rubber was stretched. We used braided nylon carpenter string line to assemble it all. It was a two person job - one person had to stretch the rubber around the wood crutch arms/leather pouch holes while the other person raced to tie it off before the person doing the stretching fatigued. The roads were gravel in the small town in which I grew up - that's where we acquired ammo. Did not take long to perfect the art of making 'low tech' but deadly slingshots this way.

    I’m only 5min in but had to take a break and comment. Your fixturing for a slingshot is insane. As is your skill level and craftsmanship. I’m going to make some coffee now. If I would have realized this was a 21min video before I clicked play, I would have brewed up a couple cups before I even started watching! A 21min video from 6061!!! Am I dreaming!? Is this real life!?!?

    Have you seen the homemade melting pots for aluminum? I can't think of the correct name. I've been tempted to make one of those. If he ever used one I think it would be amazing. How about using a 3D printer to create sand cast of what you want to pour? And then he machines it to a perfect finish!
