Hello, my name is Benek (short for Benedykt) and I live just outside Warsaw, Poland. Something like a month ago I started to watch videos on the slingshot channel, and I thought they were really cool, but that's probably because of how cool Joerg is <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" longdesc="2"> I find him humorous, intelligent, clever, good with his hands (I am too), and most of all entertaining. <br><br>I also like his videos so much because I've always been interested in dangerous things (or rather things that can be dangerous!): started out with firecrackers at the age of 8 an then progressed up to bows and arrows, trebuchets, black powder bombs, smoke grenades, rocket engines, rocket launchers, homemade guns, bazookas etc etc. <br><br>I'd probably never end up on this forum if I didn't want to actually build my own slingshots! Mostly for fun, but also in case the world ends on 2012 (we even have food supplies and other survival stuff at the ready) so that I can use it as a weapon for protection. Today I made the first step: buying 2.5m of Thera Band Gold and Thera Band Blue. <br><br>Anyway I have tons of questions that I hope will get answered, and maybe soon I'll be answering some of yours. <br><br>So that's it for today, thanks and bye bye <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" longdesc="15">
