Hi all,

This is another unknown wood I found somewhere in the woods already barked and I treated it in my Vacuum Jar for safety reasons.

I did no carving except preparing the fork tips for the rubber, cutting off lower part of the fork and some basic sanding. I even left "pimples" because they give some character; it has very strange curvatures (sorry photos are not perfect):

I banded it with folded 2 cm wide Precise Green, pretty strong for this one and I tried it, well, I had to get used to the awkward shape but finally I managed:

This is a perfect shape for a natural grown fork. Beautiful!

Like it already was a slingshot that someone left/lost and the rubber rotted off.

Good find. Dont set it down in the woods.

Hi mcrow thanks, I am glad you like it. Yes it shoots well but I needed some time to get used to this shape. And it is fun that such a slim object shoots 2x2 cm wide bands..

Cheers,

Love it, but she's a natural so that's a given in my book
