    So I was just minding my business cutting out a cardboard template for later this week and saw a piece of scrap, then I happened to have some chained 32s right there and I literally meant to put that handful of 1/4” back in the jar..... yeah that sling flu is rough.

      I bet those #32 bands in 2x2x2 really send 1/4 ammo! I use that configuration for plinking with 3/8.
      Is that shooter cut from the Burtini template? Looks good in bamboo. I've been looking at that one for a while, but haven't worked it up to top of my To Do list yet.

      You should @KawKan . That template was my first attempt at modern slingshot... and in homemade hpde board.

      I will look for a pic. I use matchstick attachments with chained office bands with bb's (.177).

      It really sends it! I’m going to laminate something a little more trustworthy than this piece and add it to the arsenal soon.

      It’s actually the Derringer template. I think it printed a little small but I like it

      Thank you very much. It’s really a bit too flimsy to trust, at least with that set of rubber bands on it but it was spot on shooting at the hanging socks I use for a target in front of my “indoor range”. I’m definitely going to whip up another for a more reliable version soon.
