Great video! Just ordered a taper template last night, looking forward to trying some new tapers. Also that's a great idea writing the sizes on the bands, thankya! Keep up the great work Can Vandal.
Great vid. Only thing I do different, is cut off half the taper, to get a straight edge on top, I shoot clipped slingshots . If you cut it like this the top of the band is slightly at an angle. So 20-12 is an 8mm taper. Divide by 2 is 4 mm. So I cut a strip from the edge, from 0 to 4mm, or 1 to 5mm. Then you have a straight/square top of the band. Asa Wilson from Romany Custom Catapults made a vid with that.
@@canvandal4503 definitely have been a huge help to getting me going and I thank you and love the videos I’m watching slingshot videos and relaxing tonight. Be safe if you’re out and about tonight . Happy New Year my Friend.
An excellent demonstration of how it should be done.....I've only just progressed from cutting a tongue out of an old boot for a pouch and mini cable ties to secure it.🤣🤣🤣🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇬🇧🇬🇧
Well, it’s definitely fast! I have some .55 SimpleShot black and it is a bit lighter on the draw. I don’t dislike the green but it is a bit more stout. Since I made the video I did cut a smaller taper and it worked really well.
hey can you recommend me a good taper for simple shot .4 shooting 3/8 steel would 20 to 12 work or would it be to lite? i ask because .4 is all i have in bulk
Well, .4 is very thin for 3/8. If it is what you have to work with I would start with a 14-22. That may work. Do you have any 5/16? That would work much better with .4.

This doesn't explain how to cut tapers. It explains how to use a damn tool. Show how to cut with a ruler if you want to be helpful. Ya know, like probably 90% of people coming here for those instructions.

Hey i learned something today!
Right on Tater! 👊
Can I ask bro.. how do you adjust the numbers in the ruler for the size of the rubber pieces as appropriate?
Where did you get your cutting mat your wheel cutter and your band taper
@@leemon5386 the cutter and mat came from Walmart. The band taper I got off Amazon.
Thanks can!!! You should make a video on ttf band sets vs OTT.
Great idea! 👊! Thanks for the feed back! Appreciate you brother!
Hi I' want to try cutting 55 latex but it goes wrong it moves when using template or rules lol learning lol Shane uk
Great Job Mr Vandal! How are you liking that .55 green?

@@Mikeypaulslingshots Right on!!🙏👊
I shoot 9.5mm /3/8th ammo with 20 to 15mm taper is this the correct taper for the ammo I use?
What thickness of latex are you using?
@@canvandal4503 0.55
Have you a generic recipe for roadkill?
A bit of Bluegrass music might be nice...
Can you add a link where to find your taper template?
