This is a homemade slingshot crossbow that I made. It's not as clever as some of the other ones that I've seen, but it was fun to make for a first attempt.

if you pre-tense the rubber you will get more power...

great first try

+1. Tighten up the rubber a little and you will get a lot more power. Don't worry, I learned this the hard way as well. Ruthiexxx sorted me out.

Make the easy adjustments the fellas above have already suggested and you got yourself a sweet crossbow there bud. Good job, came out great. Make sure to make another video of it shooting with the tightened bands. like to see the outcome of that.
