Then the rubber snaps back and throws the ball in the direction of the shooter. Ouch.<br /><br />The best way to avoid this is to keep the pouch small. The risk of twisting and entanglement is very low then. <br /><br />Some people say that a wide fork causes such problems. I can not confirm this and believe it is a myth. Some of my contraptions have very wide forks and nothing ever happened.The Slingshot Channelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07117380466873778722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708231852435656503.post-83408609849333628052011-12-14T23:21:16.425+01:002011-12-14T23:21:16.425+01:00Jorg, can you please comment more on why your pouc...Jorg, can you please comment more on why your pouch designs are safer (i.e, why they will not shoot it back at you like the watermelon incident, which would be fatal with a steel ball).

Much longer than the cannon, which had a draw length of 2 meters and 60 centimeters (only). <br /><br />Daruma, yes, I made a shotgun pouch a while ago. <br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zz2oGkggCCs<br /><br />But the energy of a single pellet won't kill a rabbit, just inflict pain. So I advise you to NOT use such a slingshot for hunting.The Slingshot Channelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07117380466873778722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708231852435656503.post-63520955787306212012011-12-11T02:34:11.658+01:002011-12-11T02:34:11.658+01:00My son and I have just discovered your slingshot c...My son and I have just discovered your slingshot channel, and we have a great time watching your videos. We haven't yet tried to build any slingshots ourselves yet since we don't have a lot of space to shoot them.<br /><br />I noticed that you have a general trend to use larger and larger ammo over time, but we have a question for you. Our question has a practical inspiration - our backyard has begun to be infested with bunnies. At first they were cute, but now there are too many of them, and we want to get rid of them. Our question is: have you ever created a slingshot that can shoot multiple shots at once - similar to a shotgun. This will make it far easier to reliably get the bunnies. I was thinking that perhaps you can put 10-20 ball bearings into a little tissue bag that would disintegrate when shot (maybe the trigger could rip the bag?), releasing a cloud of ammo at once to get a small, fast moving animal. What do you think? My son and I are looking forward to see if you respond to this.<br /><br />Thank you!!Darumahttps://plus.google.com/u/0/b/103260359521410066104/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708231852435656503.post-76022395289410514722011-12-11T01:16:33.635+01:002011-12-11T01:16:33.635+01:00i´m not concerned about the poles or trees where t...i´m not concerned about the poles or trees where the other ends of the bands are attached to, but how the hell will you pull that thing?<br />the handles look like you want to pull it by just moving backwards (aka holding the drawweight with your body). after we saw how difficult it is t shoot heavy stuff even with your legs, i doubt that you can acieve powers like your car sized slingshotcannon...so what is it good for?<br /><br />btw: what´s going on with your leonardo projekt? no sponsors found? :DThomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708231852435656503.post-30092388318226775152011-12-11T01:01:19.472+01:002011-12-11T01:01:19.472+01:00You could stop a charging rhino with that thing. ...You could stop a charging rhino with that thing. It's an awesome contraption that'll require XXL balls to shoot, and I'm not talking about the ammo. An injury to a careful shooter is probably unlikely, but you'd be so close to massive amounts of stored energy that you'd have to feel a bit vulnerable. But seeing the way you butterfly massive bands, you obviously aren't lacking in the balls department.Pikemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11263590988373384214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708231852435656503.post-7620280124567799982011-12-10T22:59:39.728+01:002011-12-10T22:59:39.728+01:00Well, as long as things happen in front of me, I s...Well, as long as things happen in front of me, I shall be safe.The Slingshot Channelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07117380466873778722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1708231852435656503.post-50330831150475710072011-12-10T21:21:08.874+01:002011-12-10T21:21:08.874+01:00A little bit over the top, isn´t it?
