The work you created with only simple hand tools is really beautiful. You have a rare mind and spirit to set on a brand new project and finish it to such a high quality.
Nice work, but just one thing. You were using the chisel with the angled side up. This causes deeper cuts into the wood, and can’t be corrected as you cut into the wood. If the chisel is used with the angled side down, the amount of wood being taken off can be adjusted.
who gives a comment like this a thumbs up? I recommend a google search or here on YT "how to use a chisel correctly" for these guys. Have you ever used a chisel yourselves? And I mean not for opening bottles or cutting yourselves? Cheesus Crust - still speechless
Thankyou for being honest about the time it actually takes to actually do some of this stuff. Also letting us see the failed attempts with the rollers. Many supposed DIY channels just show things almost magically coming together and intentionally edit the video in order to mislead people. I have also seen people cheat and do things like using high grade lumber to make furniture but lying and saying it was common pallet wood.
There are these amazing new tools called saws, which remove large amounts of wood very fast. Much better than spending half a day chiselling out the excess material.
Man, this was painful to watch. “Here’s how a caveman made the slingshot. But instead of using stone tools, we’ve got these high-tech gadgets now. We call them ‘chisels’. In the future, humans might invent power tools. Maybe even a bandsaw. That would make this process so much faster. But for now, all we have is the chisel.”
yeah if i were going to go hand tools it would be a coping saw and a draw knife for most of it. its not surprising he isn't aware of the proper tools for the job, based on how inexperienced he obviously is with woodworking. this seems to be a trend in these "maker" videos, people laboring endlessly with the wrong tools.
Excellent build. But the material around the fork ends is really thin and has to handle the greatest amount of stress. i wonder if it would hold up over time.
Yeah it’s a dumb design He started from a huge wood stock and then totally thinned out the two main places that take all the stress, and then they even got holes drilled in them laterally to support the dowels for the rollers even more so thinning out the material in that section. He could have made the arms wider and thicker and protrude out more to the sides and even kept the same aperture size in the middle of the arms
Try flipping the chisel around. It cuts differently depending which way the bevel faces. To cut flat use the flat side. To cut chunks out out use the beveled side.
Nicely done One tip hold you chisel the other way a rond. The flat part up. So your chisel not go in to the wood but it naturely go's out. But nicely done for your first time 😊
What a gorgeous and powerful sling shot. As a kid in California we could buy a commercially made wrist rocket (aluminum tube with forearm support from Wham-O). They were outlawed for a while due to the extreme damage they caused. Now legal, I own a sweet adjustable type- can be used for hunting, though I don't shoot animals. If you need more power, stretching latex hose across bicycle handles and using 1" bearings can go the distance with devistating power.
Loved everything about this video! Showing my appreciation as a viewer by sharing this - use the face of your new chisel's bevel to "ride along the surface" of the wood. Bevel up will dig! Best wishes from NC! ☺️👍🏼

Beautiful Design and Admirable Execution! The Clarity of your Video work is Stunning. Thank you for sharing your post. I go now to mourn the tomatoes and eggs, gone before they had a chance to feel the warmth of Spring.
If u like batterypowered try out 18 v anglegrinder + flapdisc. There are also 18 v chainsaw which works great instead of chisel. I made guitarnecks this way. It's pretty much the same shape, only a bit longer. Anyway great upload thx!!

Go near a silent lake at 5 am in the morning and shoot the slingshot straight up in the air, slightly tipped toward the lake. Fire it upward and start the stopwatch, then listen for the projectile piercing the water as it lands. For velocity multiply this time by 16 gives FEET PER SECOND. EXAMPLE 10 seconds for the trip up and back down gives 10 times 16 gives 160 feet per second. For the total height the pellet travels, Square that round trip time and multiply by 4 gives the highest point of travel in feet. EXAMPLE 10 seconds squared is 100 times 4 gives 400 feet high maximum.
It would only really make a difference with longer bands because it doesn't seem that you draw it all the way back to your face anyways. You have standard length bands so it wouldn't really make a difference. You can make your own with theraband gold exercise bands. That's what's Jörg Sprave uses.
A Sharp chisel, don't use a blunt one, or fingers will be raining. In the UK, this is a catapult, a slingshot is a piece of meterial that you swing around your head (David and Goliath!)
An erudite point which will be ignored by our N. American friends. Catapult I believe dates back to Roman times when the Roman armies deployed a number of ballistic weapons all with impressive names.
This might be a good weapon against a mass shooter. Of course,, proficiency is needed by making slingshot shooting a sport competition. Impressive idea and excellent workmanship.
You should use a sling. With a little practice you become very accurate and depending on what shape rock you use and save, you can do amazing things with your weapon. And don't gave to rely on pre-made metal balls or the king of aiming that requires two hands and sharp vision. With a small amount of practice you simply look at the target, swing, and there you go! You can easily make a sling with a small rectangular piece of leather and two leather or string straps about 18 inches up to 3 feet long.
You know when the video started I was thinking wow its going to be no power tools. Then I saw the drill and all I can say is you need a bandsaw. You could have gotten good shape in probably 15min
I have to say thank you for showing me that a chisel can remove a large amount of wood (UPDATE) the chisel didn't work so plan B. I admire your intelligence for figuring out that a rasp does the job faster (UPDATE 2) well behind the scenes it took you about 6 months and once again I thank you for not making me watch the full six months rasping. Look it's not a crime to use a band saw, it's not a crime to use an electric sander. Please don't be frightened like me when you said it was the first time you used a chisel. That egg was hit so hard it hard boiled on impact.
Next time you try something like this, get yourself a handheld grinder with a material removal disc that has chainsaw teeth on the perimeter. Cut your time from hours to well under an hour. That is, unless you like all that work.
A bandsaw or coping saw wood speed Construction. If you want to use the rollers use metal ones with ball bearings and make the mount a little bit beefier. Watch JoergSprave videos.
I would council against using arrows in a slingshot because you are basically re-inventing the crossbow, which as everybody knows is inferior in just about every important quality to the longbow.
Take a chisel and use the pointy end on the wood, the other end is to be hit with a mallet. Priceless. What would I do without such instruction.? I am unable to make this, however, because I have just eaten the last dragon in the area and didn't think to save the leather - damn it. Great video, great fun, entertaining and informative. Thanks.
Using a rubber mallet to strike a chisel should slow you down and you'll need to hit the chisel 5 times for every 1 time if he'd used a wood or steel mallet. Rubber is only used (and not at all for hitting cutting tools) in other ways, like to drive finished peices of furniture together without marring the wood. This guy is brand new to tools and techniques.
@@jeffmoore9487 Yep, I spotted the rubber mallet too and chuckled a bit. I didn't want to be too cruel. I like how he figured out sawing to the line though, he gets a point for that, I hope he learns to read the grain next.
@@indigogolf3051 In a way talent in woodworking is just picking new or old short cuts in each case. When your beginning, all you got is how you imagine it can be done. I wasn't any different.
I have a idea how hard it is making a slingshot from a big log. Especially when said log is a pice of wood from a leadwood tree and all I have is a old 32tpi hacksaw
Awesome! I'll try to replicate this using steel. I don't persevere in woodcrafting. I never thought the mechanical concept of a modern bow can be adopted to slingshot. I'm good with traditional slingshot type but this model will be very accurate. Thanks for the tip!
Im interested if the rubber hurts your hand at all in this design. With normal slingshots after the basket releases the ball it will travel backward and slap you on the fingers sometimes. Its not a big deal at first, but as it keeps hitting you over and over again it really start to hurt. Does this one do something similar?

I’ve never seen someone inexperienced use unfamiliar tools and make something of such high quality. Kudos sir, very impressive!!
when i saw him using the chissle upside down i was like it can only get better from now on - boy was i wrong
Nice work, but just one thing. You were using the chisel with the angled side up. This causes deeper cuts into the wood, and can’t be corrected as you cut into the wood. If the chisel is used with the angled side down, the amount of wood being taken off can be adjusted.

Someone PLEASE buy this guy a band-saw!!!!!
I never saw a slingshot like that.Great work.
This is the type we used to craft in my childhood in Karelia. Used wooden thread coils for rollers, but everything else is pretty much the same.
*I have never seen*

Hey thanks.

What an awful lot of hacking when a band saw would do most of the work in 4 cuts! But very imaginative use of common garden tools! Kudos!

Glass marbles are good as well as metal balls. They don’t penetrate, but are good for head shots or water melons.
Wow so cool that sling will do some major damage
I just discovered this channel yesterday. I love it
Spectacular now we need the birds back.
I can’t help but imagine Ron Swanson standing next to him…….judging.
Thanks for sharing... I used to fashion rudimentary slingshots from sticks as a kid, nothing this complex, as I wasn't allowed to play with chisels. 🤣

look for a vertical bandsaw, (any friends work in a factory ?) it will save you time and energy , ...amazing piece of work though, thanks for sharing
That looks really fun, might make one for myself. But my only question is how strong are the supports where the rollers are?
Personally I'd try to plan it out to make that area much thicker, with something like this durability seems important
This is great alternative for hunting small games. Awesome work!

Before I would take on a project like this I would definitely try an find a band saw too remove most of the stock.
It would be very interesting to use a chronograph to compare the speed from this slingshot against a commercial model firing the same size metal ball.
God bless you bro, I hope you stay safe and healthy.
It looks like it might also be able to accept arrows or be able to with little modding!!! Such cool design
