  1. Homemade Slingshots
    Here are a few slingshots that have come out of the shop recently. The first is a slingshot for my father in law. Argentine Osage core, maple spacers, zebrawood, and ebony palmswells I recently traded my personal slingshot, the very first Maxim Tactical, for a custom knife. I am sucker for...

  3. Homemade Slingshots
    This slingshot was made from a Whitetail deer antler that on it's own was not of sufficient size or shape to be a slingshot. As such, i have hybridized it with several other woods. The handle section is made from a kingwood laminate with bamboo accent stripes. The forks are made from solid...

    I was fortunate enough to win one of Popshot's beautiful Koa wood pickle fork shooters as a door prize at this years ECST. I have always admired Koa and was elated when no one had chosen this beauty. Well, I am not one to have a slingshot that I don't shoot, so when I got home I banded it up...

    A dedicated Hammer grip slingshot has been a consistent request of the fans of FlippinOut Slingshots for many months now. After many, many inadequate prototypes and failed attempts, we have finally arrived upon a Hammer Grip design that is deserving of the inaugural place as the first in the...
  7. Homemade Slingshots
    Recently, a fellow enthusiast asked me to recreate the classic milbro in wood. After looking over the few Milbro models I have in my own collection, I started the creation. He asked for buckeye burl and thuja burl- neither of them strong enough to handle the delicate shape, so I started with...
  8. General Slingshot Discussion
    I have just started tinkering with wire frame slingshots. I just finished my first and I am stoked. I made it from 5/16" aluminum and added a rosewood/tulip wood handle and I can shoot it really well. As soon as the finish is dry, i will show it off. I pretty much copied a simple trumark...
  9. Homemade Slingshots
    Lightgeoduck commissioned me to craft for him a special BB shooter. His only directives were that it be made from dark colored woods, include antler, have a palm swell and a pinkie hole. Well, after numerous prototypes- all of which I did not care for I finally found the right combination. I...

  11. Homemade Slingshots
    I came across a piece of really unique spalted walnut too. I made it into an Axiom model. It sports an Osage Orange core with sapele mahogany and walnut spacers. The palmswell is cocobolo with a birch spacer. I added a few extra coats of finish to give it a deeper look and polished them out...
  12. Homemade Slingshots
    I came across a very nice piece of spalted maple from my neck of the woods. I think it was what woodworkers in my area call "Brown Maple" or Acer Rubrum. Anyway, it is pretty much a natural tie dyed piece of wood due to whatever causes spalting in wood-bugs, fungi, or otherwise. I like it...
  13. Homemade Slingshots
    I found a great cedar fork that was really chunky, sorry for not having pics of the original fork. Anyway, I wanted to carve out one of my current models from a natural fork, just for fun. It came out quite nice and Eastern Red Cedar has a beautiful grain, especially within the fork. Check it...
