    Super cool and very creative build. How does she sling.?<br><br>What is the break down on parts used for the project if you don't mind me asking its beautiful, it has that med-evil quality i love in my weaponry.

    Seeing pieces like that makes me ask myself: Is there a limit to the imagination in making slingshots?<br>You made an incredible one again, beautiful job mate!!!<br>Respect.<br>PS: And again, very nice pics and presentation.

    Thanks a lot, happy you like it ! <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" longdesc="2"><br><br>The (spare) part list:<br>-multiplex board - 6 pieces of 21 mm<br>-one holder for elektric overhead wires (cast steel)<br>-threaded rod (M10)<br>-two washer<br>-one copper nut<br>I m not really happy with the nut, maybe i will looking for a brass donut <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" longdesc="15">... she is a little top heavy, ... i dont tell you ... all in all almost 400g <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt="Rolling Eyes" longdesc="14">, she needs some weight at the bottom end. And i have to order some tube, so its still in progress.

    You could bore a way bigger hole into the bottom and use more (hidden) nuts or washers to make it heavier at the bottom.<br><br>looking very cool...a bit westernstyle.

    Or pour some metled lead into a cavity in the bottom to even the ballance. Can't wait to see it banded up.

    This is undoubtedly beyond slingshot making... This is art!<br>Very well done indeed... <br><br>P.S<br>only "issue" i see, is that you have to replace the copper nut with a regular out of steel/iron otherwise you will have a problem with electrolysis....

    Aye, thanks for the ideas ! I will see what spare part i will find ... maybe she needs up to 100 g at the bottom, not easy. I am very busy at the moment, no time for hobby work ...<br>@Theodor: You are right, i dont think about that! But i will manage it, i have insulate and colorless varnish. <img src="http://illiweb.com/fa/i/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" longdesc="15">
