Hi! My name is Jonathan, I'm 26 years old, and I rediscovered slingshots this year. I always thought they were really awesome, but I carved my first one out of a natural fork 3 months ago, with chained office bands and kangaroo leather (I tried cow leather, but the bands were too strong and it teared, even after I tried double thickness). Oh well, kangaroo leather works well.<br><br>I'm here because Joerg has really awesome weapon building projects and I'd like to get into it as well. I don't have much tools, but I have friends who do, and I'm sure they'll be interested as well.

Merci! <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" longdesc="2"><br><br>I can't wait to start building stuff! I got one of my friends interested in it, too. Just had to show him Joerg's videos, and to ask him if he'd be into building some weapons too!

 

[tokSick]

That would be great if you convince him. Can' t wait to see what you will build. <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_bounce.gif" alt="bounce" longdesc="27">

Hi! I can't wait to see either! Might be crappy at first. In any case, I know I'll have to experiment.
