Hi folks.
I made this slingshot today, and I named it the ``Hornet`` because it reminds me of the stinging beast.
Anyway, This one is a 7 layer laminate of red oak (center) with two layers of cloth resin, two layers of yellowheart, and two layers of zebrawood on the outside. Indestructable.
I have it set up with double latex flatbands....5/8 X 1/2 inch, tapered.
This is my single ergo hunter on steroids

She shoots very fast, and I like it alot.

Stunning Bud! The first impression I got was one of those Christmas Candies you see with the surprise middle in it! Awesome looking frame Bud. A candidate for May's Slingshot of the Month for sure! ****,I nominate it now!

Holy Crap!

This is so far unquestionably my favorite laminate I have seen. Others were very good but the way you varied the layers in combination with the material (Color) choice is fantastic.

Thanks for all the kind remarks.
My planer got a workout making this piece. I wanted very thin wood to work with for the layers.
I have more ideas in my head

Amazing! Do you build composite bows as well? Your building technique of using laminates reminds me of the work of a bowyer.

I am glad I have some good pictures of this fork.
She is going to a new home in Mobile Alabama, in the morning .
I would like to keep all my shooters....but I can`t. It makes me happy that other people enjoy them also. Guess I will try and make an even nicer one.

Beautiful work Tom. I'll bet you'd have a hard time keeping that model in stock.
