I go collecting every winter , finding a dozen forks or so out in the parks nearby. I only spent about an hour putting this one together. This is the first new slingshot I have completed this year, glad I spent an hour or so in the shed on this rainy day. I cut the forks to suit a side...

Hi Guys, there are three more attempts from the past few days to build a natural slingshot that fit's to me. The wooden "V" is a gripless fork for shooting only in thumb & finger support style, I gave her strong bands for a strong guy. The second named Eagle, because the heck it is - isn't it...

I built this nice shooter the last days and have so much fun with the really heavy draw. This one is my second try to built a natural one. I shoot it in the finger & thumb support style, because the fork is so high. Meine zweite Natural, hab ich schon vor einigen Tagen fertiggestellt und schöne...

Sour cherry natural vs bamboo wood, this one sat on the shelf for 3 months, but last week I had the courage to finish it. I got the fork a year ago from a friend's garden, it was already dried. I started working on it 3 months ago but I didn't know that to do about the cracks. In the end I went...

I made my first slingshot using a router template, the template was made from a piece of 9 mm laminate flooring. Made from a natural hazel tree fork that was planed, routed and laminated with bamboo wood with green vulcanized paper in-between. Handsanded up to 1200 grit, finished with 2...

Hello brothers and sisters :) After a loong loong time I finally finished a slingshot :) Its based on my Spindle cicatrix frame, only with an added 'stinger' at the bottom, so it can be used as a self-defense stabber. So it resembled a wasp, so that's what we will call this frame :)...

Hi. I've been skulking around for a long while looking at natural shooters to get some design ideas and try my hand at making a few... luckily I live right next to an old golf course so it has bunch of exotic and local trees making the trail around it practically an arboretum... I cut a few...

Hi folks, Here I have my latest build, made from the topmost fork of a fallen tree I came across after an autumn storm. The bark was completely gone and the wood was whithered to a dark grey, as can be seen in the first picture. So, as per usual, I have no clue what kind of tree it was. This...

Hey guys! Yeasterday I read this quote by Bert, in which he suggested Obl1v1Aus to build a sled... And then I got an Idea! :) Such a sled is perfect for giving almost every imaginable shape two parallel surfaces! - also forks. Then I changed Bert's Idea of a screw against two nails. Why...

Welcome to the long awaited reveal of the giveaway prize from WildBills hands. Here you can see some pictures off the giant shiny deadwood natural slingshot named Webster, I think the name was chosen because the fork on it reminds of the webbed area between fingers...

Found this beautifully crafted slinger in Chatuchak or Jatujak Weekend Market in Bangkok on 4th Oct., 2014. Unknown wood specie, but is heavy and looks like its shaped from a natural fork. A steal at US$2.50!

hey guys.. ..while joking around with some knive-building-tests over the last days and trying to colorize blades in different ways, i put some natural wood into vinegar for fun, and it came out very nice.. a blue-grey tint which goes trough to the core and brings out the grain.. left it in...

I present #4 Slick Chomp Besides this being my first PFS, it was the first time I laminated a SS and also the first time I experimented with a ?saw slit in the forks? attachment method, dunno what its called, I have seen it on Wingshooters (SSF) Recurve hunters. But since I wanted only 1/2...

I proudly present Spindle Cicatrix Made from European Spindletree. Made to look like the willow natural you can see at 5:00 here After I removed the bark (was after month of drying indoors.) it cracked so I healed the wounds and eyes with a mix of saw dust ink and epoxy. You can see a...
