Guess its time to make an slingshot again, way too long since last time...

Ordered 2500mm of Theraband Gold and started on a prototype today, CNC´d it out of 20mm thick Plywood. Cant wait starting to carve the shapes.

Heres the "Bella One" (slingshot in Swedish are called slangbella and nicknamed bella).

I agree - nice drawing skills. Can't wait to see it transposed to that piece of ply.

Yeah, can’t wait for this one. Nice design

Big thanks for the nice comments.

Here is a work in progress -pic... drinking cold beer, eating 22 months Italian Parmesan cheese while chamfering the first stage of the shapes with 80 grit paper over the kitchen sink ???? Next step is to draw new more detailed lines with new sections to chamfer and when Im close to the final design its time to smoothen everything out and making radiuses etc with finer grit paper. Have a nice evening everyone and be safe.

Cheers,

Making them is half the fun, be patient and now all you have to do is take off all the wood that isnt a slingshot. Keep the momentum going.

Nice work. I will be interested to see what other ideas you have in your head

Waiting to see the end product looks great so far.

Work in progress... the first layers of base coat reveals all the shapes, makes it easier to navigate.

 

[pencil5757]

Is that the final color?

Is that the final color?

No, thats just the first layer of base coat. Will clean up the surfaces and trim the design before paint and clearcoat.
