Hello Slingshot Forum Friends!!!
Here's my latest work. None was so fitting as this one
A while back, a friend from the Web asked me if I could do him a frame, in exchange for one of his works (he's a fantastic blacksmith and knife forger. I shall present his work in another occasion. The carving knife he made for me is AMAZING!!)
It so happens that his surname is "Laranjeira" which, translated in English, is "Orange Tree"
As you might know, in Portugal there's a lot of tree names representing family names, as for example "olive tree", "chestnut tree", "walnut tree" and so on.
So, I guess he's going to feel related to this slingshot!!
Hand carved on a natural orange tree fork, it was finished with linseed oil and natural beeswax.
Hope you folks like it!!
Cheers ...Q
