    I live in the southwestern United States. The mesquite here is the rock of hard wood. And definitely has a beautiful look to it

    Absolutely gorgeous ! And to think, I lived in Texas for a while. We used to cut down and burn mesquite trees, just to get rid of them ! That was before I discovered sling shots.

    I loved how when you was setting up the material in the vise the whole time the ferret was like "Hey pops, let's go hunting!"

    Brilliant video that tree fork terned out beautifully epoxy resin is brilliant for filling voids you can use casting resin a cheep way to get rid of the bubbles is a bait pump for carp fishing it creates a vacuum and pulls out the bubbles a vacuum chamber is a bit expensive for a tiny job. you can add color or flecks to the resin. That is some awesome accuracy.

    Wow that is just gorgeous! I don't know where the 8mm steel hate comes from, I love it! I can see hunters like shooting heavier ammo but for target shooting 8mm is the ammo for me. And with snipersling black I reach 326 fps with .5 bands and 8mm steel. If you can't take game with that its because you missed. Lol

    @08:30 knot hole, fill-in ???
    Ya, I'm two years late to the party and often fill in with resin epoxy, but, if it's not structural i like that kind left alone and clear/natural, no color like you did it.
    This is a beautiful piece of skilled craftsmanship, well done! 👍

    Great slingshot builds. These videos have helped a lot in my slingshot builds. Just got into slingshots a month ago. Can’t help myself I leave a saw in my truck. Always looking for forks. A few people have seen me in the woods. Probably think what is this weirdo up to, hahaha.

    Hi Chris, I write from Italy. Very good video, as always. I'm very fond for construction with natural tree forks and I appreciate and love your work! To fill holes and cracks, I use epoxy myself, it's the best. If yI want a good natural result, I mix epoxy with a little amount of wood powder, residual from sanding or sawing, or with some contrasting colour dust or liquid. I share your pyrotechnic enthusiasm and the love for a good natural slingshot made with our hands!
    May I send you some pictures of the forks I try to do?
    Sincerely yours,
    Luigi

  • @greggcorbett9344
    @greggcorbett9344 2 года назад

    Interesting comments about ammo - I started a couple of years ago with 9.5 but now shoot 7 & 8. 7mm still hits with a real whack, but can be difficult to see. Also, I think I get a smoother release from smaller ammo. Great video Chris!

  • @hernandotorres1234
    @hernandotorres1234 2 года назад +1

    What a result, that's a work of art. It's great to watch the process, I'm curious to know how much time it takes from first sawing to the banding up point.

    • @CatapultCarnage
      @CatapultCarnage  2 года назад +3

      Probably around 3 hours but then you need to wait for the finish to dry too and it gets several coats.
      So over 12 hours from start to shoot

  • @dazofthemoo1531
    @dazofthemoo1531 2 года назад +1

    Ended up a beautiful piece. Logo's great. Jeez your fast with that rip saw. Wee ferret got excited once you started shooting (I knew you'd make the shot). This time last year during school holidays, my daughter and I had a go at making bows. I remember looking for forked branches as a kid to make catapults, though they never ended up like that. So, this year we'll follow your lead. And I'll be happy if they look half as good as this turned out. (Would of liked to see you fit the bands). Huge thumb muscle bro, haha! Always get home sick watching you. Hppe you and yours have a fantastic & safe new year!

    • @CatapultCarnage

    Hi Chris, my name is Robert Bussiere and I live in Ontonagon Michigan United States. I know a master woodworker he gave me a good tip a long time ago
    Keep the sawdust from the slingshot would you are using and makes it with wood glue fill in the gap with the sawdust and glue and sand it over and you'll never know it was ever there.

    You can use wood epoxy. It’s a 2 part mixture, and it’s sandable and takes stain.
