I am getting started on this just so I can figure it out. Gaboxlolo has been giving me help. I am already seeing where I may have gone wrong. The top seems to short vertically.

I wish we had that "eating popcorn and waiting" smilie here, 'cause I will be!

 

[Jim Williams]

That's coming on great! I look forward to seeing it, I have been having great fun shooting the ones I have made recently

It may just be a place to start so I can figure out where I want to go. I am excited about finding the peg board posts. They seem to be plenty strong and very close to what Gaboxolo described.

DUDE,DUDE,DUDE.. you are my new hero... I just gots to see this finished and on vid...

I am in love with it already... I already can see the end result

Words can:t explain how great that is...

Here is the latest. I am wondering about the scale and spacing for the pins. I think they should be outside the forks more, and the forks are not tall enough. Gaboxolo?

first I would like to say .. that you are making great progress...

by going back to the spanish comp thread.. checking out his image, it looks like the pins should be out a little more.. since it appears that where the bands attach (bottom of the rod loop) is even with the top of the wooden fork... also comparing gabos pic and your fork gap cut line... it appears to be spot on.

of course.. gabo would have the expert advise, I am just stating my observations..

Hope this new composition and "class" would be worthwhile and helpful to you!!

In a unique pic, there are a lot of information.

Moreover, my father and me are "left-handed" shooters like you, so its to easy for us to correct you once you start to shoot (with hypothetical case if you have problems shooting with this new ss).

My father says laughing that it's a pity to not know you and talk to you directly, making a "correcting" and the most important, shooting day with spanish typical style..."paella" and "sangria" hahahaha

New questions?New answers!

That is very helpful, thank you. The food looks wonderful. It would be great to visit and learn from a champion.

It feels good to know others are interested. Wouldn't it be awesome to go to Spain for the tourney.
