Looks like a great first go at frame building!
Made A Slingshot Today
It's been two weeks since my introduction post today is the first day that I had time that it was nice enough to go to the shop. I drew me a little slingshot and cut it out, I got lazy on sanding it and just hit it with some blue paint because I don't know if I'll like it or not since it's the first one I ever made.
I'll sand the tops of the forks some more before I put the bands on.
I told myself I wasn't going to buy a slingshot but I got so tired of waiting on the weather that I ordered a Hornet from Fowler last week, cost an arm and a leg. It's was supposed to be here yesterday but hasn't arrived yet.
I've got to find some bands somewhere still for this little blue one.

Thanks everyone! Shoots great I think, I don't have much experience but I got some bands on it today and put ten shots through it and hit the target four times. That's as well or better than I've been doing with the slingshot I bought. I think I could hit the target 80% or more if I shot at a regular size tin can instead of the small one.
Check out my scrap wood catch box, it hangs on the clothesline. I need to button it up a little more because a few shots get through it. There's a hole in the tray you can't see for the shot to roll out, as soon as I get an empty peanut butter jar I'm going to cut a hole in the lid and attach it to the underside so I can screw the jar on and off to collect the ammo by tilting it so it all rolls into the jar.
