This creator should have born 50 years ago. That was the time when i was 12 years of age shooting birds with a catapult powered by rubber band. After several shots the rubber band snaps off. It was a hassle to repair it on site. I salute you sir by showing this awesome technology of creating this wonderful device. Good job sir 👍 Warmest regards from Borneo bumi kenyalang.
Really cool design. It's mostly held together with superglue, but most of the parts aren't under much tension, so that's fine. But I don't know how long the thin strip of metal in the gravity feed ammunition mechanism will last. Very attractive finish put on it too!
Two flat wooden parts stuck together with super glue , become pretty much one piece. I can assure you that you wouldn't be able to take that sling apart. No way.
@@marcinradziejewski6086 Yeah, but you don't need to take apart the entire gun to replace the bits that would need replacing. It's fine if most of it is now a solid object. Only the "strings" for the slingshot are likely to need replacing anytime soon, and that's an easy fix.
This man crafts the most beautiful and detailed items ive ever seen throughout youtube. One of the very best skilled and professional crafter here on youtube. I admire your work sir💜👍🏼
Clever guy, wonderful simple looking but clever design & great aesthetics. Best luck, I hope you're channel grows quickly - maybe a bit more info for others to recreate, rather than just watch... Thanks
Aside from the fact using CA glue to stick together pieces of wood isn't the best way to do it (there's also wood-exclusive glue that works better), isn't putting CA glue in both pieces, letting it dry for some seconds, then strongly pressing both pieces against each other a bit better? That's all there is to question about this build, amazing job
a spring inserted into the magazine and guiding the bullets to the magazine's ejection would make the design somewhat more effective. Just a little Tipp. Thank you for the video 😉
I have a question regarding how strong this slingshot is, would you happen to have rough stats like feet per second, and a rough estimate of how much effort goes into pulling back the rubber band. I am also interested in how far away it remains accurate. This is just personal curiosity at how effective this is as a design compared to standard slingshots. I am aware you could increase the power with a stronger rubber band, but just for curiosity sake, as it seems something like this could make a good starter slingshot due to being able to incorporate a site if it remains accurate at moderate range
I thought it looked like thin CA. I’m utterly fascinated you haven’t managed to glue yourself to your product with so much liberally applied CA glue. That stuff is a menace. Kudos. 😊
I had to drill into myself! Thats so awesome. I thought i was the only weird one. When i smashed my thumb i luckily was in my machine shop. So i chucked up a 1/16 drill im my drill press and drilled right through. The way your thumb nail makes a chip is incredibly similar to delrin.
Some suggestions for both the audience and creator, dont use superglue/crazyglue. Use an actual wood glue, else in a few years with constant use, the layers will seperate due to moister and temperature and because those glues are extremely brittle. Also regarding the trigger system, it would be more reliable to put the trigger on a pivet and use an actual spring. Especially because buying a strong spring is often cheaper then buying a piece of spring steel, cutting it down and drilling holes into it. Finally, if you don't know what you're doing, the friction from working the steel will destroy the temper of said spring steel, and it will become less springy and more brittle.
A few issues I can't help but wonder about: 1. That CA glue can't possibly be strong enough to hold this all together long-term. Have you had these break? 2. The CA glue also soaks into the wood fibers. Won't it make the finish splotchy? 3. The way you secure the rubber tubing to the screws looks like it's just waiting to come flying off.
Got recommended a jewel crafting dude, amazing video. Calm voice with calm music in the background. Then i get recommended this. No talking..just loud obnoxious sounds and annoying music...lol
What liquid glue do you use in your blog? I will truly appreciate if you can give me an answer to this! I’ll visit this blog so I can see your response. Thank you
Please provide design plans. Every part with length, height and width. Because we do not have tool to cut wood and if plan are available we can ask a workshop to cut the parts. I am from Pakistan
Bom tarde! Aonde posso encontrar para comprar este estiligue de esfera, ou seja (bolinhas de aço) Que tipo de mercados no Brasil posso achar. Estou no aguardo das respondo
Hi fella you really do some awesome work, thank you for your channel. Im curious do you have plans for what you create and if so where can i get them as i would love to build some of your wonderful inventions.
Nice build! On the wood to wood parts, I understad why the video would use super glue (so they don't have to wait for the wood glue to dry and can quickly get it made for the video). But other than that, is there a reason to use the superglue rather than wood glue for teh wood on wood parts? Obviously, anything involving pastic or metal requires the super glue.
love the content and following you from now, just want to know if you can link the glue you using because that one i never seen before and is damn good lol
F***g absolute beast! That's the most appropriate thing to held for self defence without getting in trouble (I asume) I would pay big money on such beautiful useful piece of art.
Hmmm i know it would have been a little more complicated but i would have made the magazine detacheable (makesmaintenance easier and in this case even possible in the first place ) and i would have made a cocking handle/lever to make the arming process easier
@@diycrossbow My future will be cabin in the woods at north, there will be bears, so these slingshots might be ideal defence, and a funn hobby as well out there. I just cant stand cities anymore, i gone introvert.
