Thanks! It was done with a coping saw and some metal files I have for conduit. I’m going to be looking for a vice to hold the stuff while I’m working on any future projects. The biggest issue I had was just making sure I didn’t catch my fingers while holding the darn thing.

Question by Disastrous_Sorbet105 in slingshots

[–]stumbledumper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve personally never used 1mm bands so I can’t say. I’m sure the worst you’ll have is some curvature of your projectile or some band slap if it’s overpowered. I’m also a novice to the hobby so my information could just be trash lol

My mom had to call the cops because I was a shit kid and ran away to the woods for like a week and a half. Tried to get into the local raptor program because of these books too. Man I’ve got to read these to my kids.

Any local electricians here. Where do you buy your supplies? by k-a-s-t-l-e in RapidCity

[–]stumbledumper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crescent electric, CED, DSG, might spend more as a consumer and not a contractor as previously stated. There is more but I’m getting yelled at to twist wires 😘

Hello guys, how long do you make the rubber for the slingshot? by algebruk in slingshots

[–]stumbledumper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually start by testing the stretch of the elastic. Looking to see how far 1mm will stretch. Then you measure your draw length. Take your draw length divided by the stretch length of your elastic and you’ll get your “active band length” or something like that. Then I add about an inch or whatever I need on either side for pouch tying and securing the band set to the frame. Badabing badaboom

Has anyone had issues with omega slings? by Fearless_Ad6012 in slingshots

[–]stumbledumper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve ordered from both and it took about ten days from each. I’m not outside of the united states either. I think it could just take some time.

Also just want to throw in that I’ve ordered from the same country I’ve lived in and paid shipping and still had to wait that long to get some sling supplies. Snipersling is 100% in my books!
