I was proficient with a sling when young. I made mine out of leather boot laces and a soft leather pouch with a few holes to help secure the rocks.

Ashley's stopper/oysterman knot (search you-tube vids). Better and better looking than the double knot. And to use for the release knot.

"Throw it like a baseball" - and that should suddenly make everything obvious. Oh, Americans! I love the technique and simplicity of the design of this sling though. I stumbled on this video looking for some synthetic materials as a replacement for leather. After all we are living in 21st century - leather is not mandatory, We should have other options in the plastic era. And leather is unnecessarily expensive. Plastic materials will do well too.

if you drilled your top holes with the bit at 45 degrees horizontal and 45 degrees vertical, would it create a vortex with the flame?

Good video.For pellets, try a kitchen sink drain strainer.

For drilling sheet metal, a step drill bit and de-burring tool will make life easier for you. Step drill bits help keep the bit from grabbing when it breaks through and marring the hole, and the de-burring tool will take care of the metal shards. Step bits leave less shards as well and can themselves be used to de-burr.

15/64 . whut ? i don't have enough freedom for that ... for other captives; that's practically a 6mm drill bit. 3/4" width = 19mm or about 2 cm. 4 inch = around 10cm Nice video, cheers.

Dimensions (Fellow slingers) are 4x7/8 @ 1:39 .

These are so much fun! My son actually taught me how to use a sling.

Properly removing a limb when pruning requires at minimum 3 cuts. Please research for yourself, the community, and the trees.

Yes! You should!

Good video. Where in Gwinnett is this? I live in Forsyth. Is that a leaf blower ?😂

A brilliant lesson for anyone. Especially you crybabies thinking the sky is falling, because you didn’t get the president you wanted.

Why is this on youtube? Never seen a border collie outsmart other breeds before bud?

I enjoyed the video but I think you'd have better accuracy and more power if you start the swing behind you, with your body aligned sideways to your target, instead of swinging on the side of your body. Swinging the sling on the side looks (and to me it feels very) unnatural. The reason, I think, the "baseball" swing works better for you is because you're projectile is coming from behind. Do the same with the side swing and you should find it improves your throwing. Also check out Archaic Arms, he has some videos about how to use them as well. Best of luck!

Bruh. Your camera work is not good

Perfect!

Thanks buddy

Some shorts are too long others are too short. Figure it out.

If it doesn't fit into a short don't make it a short.

Very nice !

what are the straps that you bought for your silkie saw? can you provide a link?

I have always called it pine knot.

If you wanted to find fat wood pull it out you pants sexyy man

In Louisiana we call in rich pine😊

Lighterknot is what we call Fatwood out here in Southern Mississippi, true story...

Even Yankees call it lightered not. This dude playing in the woods with a Walmart knife.

When did you rename it?

Your a idiot

Well I did post a reply for you but sadly google isn't too good at knowing what a joke is so here is a replacement comment.

Pitch pine

We call it lightered in the south

I am convinced David had a staffsling. But dont matter, great Video! I like the pouch you made. Thanks for showing, have a great day

Watch the full video by clicking the link! It’s pretty interesting to see how the forest took over this area.

Great video! One nit - I thought the double fisherman's is traditionally a bend, which is joining two ropes together. Wasn't this a noose knot?

love your videos man

I usually yell something along the lines of ‘this is Sparta’ when I drop kick my snap cuts 😂

Well done. ThanX!

Brother it was amazing!

Thank you 🙏 ❤ good job 👏 👍 ❤

awesome vid! i like your approach and appreciate you sharing your findings

to clarify this was built by a tyler tech employee not tyler tech, so it may work correctly.

I love your work. Keep it up 😊

I used to have that same chainsaw if that is an old school Echo!

Very nicely done. Godspeed sir.

Thanks so much for this great explanation. I was looking for a way how to retrieve the rope when rappelling in a single strand of the rope. Butterfly/figure 8 knot is the way to go.

Great explanation and demonstration. Exactly what i was looking for
