Be kind! :D [IMG]
Hey Y'all. Last month I posted some photos of a homemade natty I called "Grover" but I mistakenly thought I had made it from a deadwood Monterey...
Hey Y'all. It's been several months since I've whittled down a slingshot and I was itching to do so. I moved to Monterey California back in June...
I finished binge watching Netflix's 2017 serial episode release of "Godless". It was a 7 episode mini-series of about 1hr on average for each...
Hey Y'all. I've finished writing another chapter for the continuing saga of the dark slinger, Noah Won, and his mutant goat companion, Oliver....
Hey Y'all. Madrona trees (Arbutus Menziesii) are pretty robust in that they can let an entire branch or even parts of the trunk die off while...
:D Hey Y'all. This is my first build of 2020. I made this fat stubby OTT from a Madrona fork, harvested from a fallen tree limb last spring. The...
Hey Y'all. @Flipgun got after me to write another chapter for this slingshot-based dystopian adventure story. If you want to read the first three...
No, it is not a slingshot. It is made from a spalted deadwood fork I harvested from a Big-Leaf Maple tree. If you can guess what it is you are...
[IMG] Hey Y'all. This is my last build for the season. The amount of spalting on this deadwood Madrona/Madrone/Arbutus natural fork was crazy...
Hey Y'all, I really liked the white stain (Minwax) that I used on my last build so I did so again here with this pocket OTT slingshot. Instead of...
Hey Y'all, I found this driftwood Madrona (AKA Madrone AKA Arbutus) fork on a Puget Sound beach. I've made a few dozen slingshots finished with...
Hey Y'all. This is another old diseased Madrona fork that I was not sure about because of the extensive amount of cankers but working it down...
Hey Y'all, I really am addicted to youtube build videos (wood/metal crafts/furniture/homes/DIY) so here is a longer video of my most recent build...
This monstrosity was hewn from a massive deadwood maple fork. I utilized the shou-sugi-ban technique and afterwards some wormholes were filled...
Hey Y'all, once again I have re-finished three more OTT natties from my build collection. I've experimented quite a bit with different shapes for...
Hey Y'all. When I got into making naturals I was using polyurethane. I never liked it because it was too slippery. I recently have been...
Hey Y'all. Some of you might not have seen my conus build from several years ago, inspired by the great builder and marksman Arturo Borquez. It...
Hey Y'all. I was corrected a while back in calling a slingshot a "natty" or "natural fork" slingshot. The claim is that although it was made from...
Hey Y'all. I'm not sure if I'm the only one who does this but many times I've taken old builds and given them a do-over to improve the shape. I...
