My old models

The following metal slingshot have a pull weight of 30 pound and shoot up to 200 yards. The black bands are taken from an exercising set. Note the unique pouch attachment: The bannds are fastened together with duct tape using the "kink and tie" method. Then, a piece of tubular rubber is slipped over.


The Eagle Beak.



The Robot Arm. Note how the bands are attached to strong leather pieces - this way, the Robot arm has some kind of rotating prong, improving accuracy, and increasing lifespan of the bands. I also like the little peep sight on the left fork end!



The Robot Arm again, this time without wristbrace, but with a bicycle handle for better grip.
