I didn't know where this would fit in so I felt like the Armory was as good a place as any. Rewind to the summer and I get it in my head to make a sling shot and although I've never made a sling shot, how complicated could it be? Turns out I didn't know what I didn't know and neither bungee cords or bicycle inner tube make for a good sling shot. I found some forums for sling shots and read that exercise bands are a decent alternative for making slingshots so I picked one up, cut it up, and made this contraption. I know I could've bought a sling shot band or hell a whole slingshot for what I paid for the exercise band but I wanted to make one from scratch, it was fun.
It'll send one of those glass balls through a cardboard box and dent the other side at about 10' or so, which I'm happy with.
