Making Solid G10 Slingshots

By request, making G10 slingshots

[@davidmcgrath9581]

Theirs no end to this man's talent, not only does he make them but he shoots them as well and fairly brilliant at that, I'd say probably the best shot in the world, Outstanding!!!

[@BobbyMeeks]

Thank you for this! So many tools I've been looking for a reason to buy. Now I have one.

[@DogGuy19]

As always, appreciate you sharing your knowledge & experience Mr. Hays, I always learn something. I ordered a couple slingshots from you today, along with some other goodies, looking forward to their arrival! Thanks!

Hi Bill, Thanks for showing us how much effort goes into producing a sling shot. Here wishing you god health and prosperity in 2016 Sandy

What a lovely guy bill is. 👏 a scholar and a gentleman. 🤝 Done so much for the community, and seems like a genuinely nice guy. Respect 🙏

I think a mechanical spider put a web on Bill's drill press! I use a table router myself for better control. I begin my roundover bits at 1\8", move to 3\8" for inside the forks, parts of the handle, or whatnot, and finish with a 3\4" for the thumb curve, insets, and forefinger indent. Yes, there is some sanding needed for the jump to 3\4, but less work than going through 7\16, 5\8, or whatever.

Thank you Bill , your channel is a Blessing to all love your channel keep upload more videos in shooting a slingshot it's very entertaining to watch , I want to be like you someday

[@patrickgermond2750]

That's crazy you make such great works of art using that old rattle trap of a drill press. That puts alot of equipment to shame.

[@ntj030885]

Thanks for sharing Mr. Bill. Some of the best sligshots I have came from you.

[@TheOneproudmeximan]

I didn't know you could get a sideshooter in g10 well now that'll be next on my list cheers Mr bill

[@slingshotwarrrior8105]

You make fine shooters Bill(:

[@AxlasLexo]

Nice job and very good slingshot! 👍

[@lancepierres]

Hello Mr.Hays.I make my slingshots with no power tools and they are not as nice as yours.I wish i had the half of your tools.Thanks for sharing and keep on the awesome work and spreading the slingshot bug. :-) tokSick.

[@calmarcalmar]

awesome - very nice job! (on some other video - where you cut the bands - instead of marking where to cut .. I thought something like a guide - just like on 21:40 could be used. Then you could just push the bands to there and cut .. making all almost perfectly the same - with less hassle - and no need to find matching pairs afterwards. Yeah well such 'guides' are generally awesome to use wherever possible, isn't it . Easy and highly precise)

[@jeremyhood]

Thank you for sharing, Mr. Hays. Awesome video. I'm curious why you don't use a blank slingshot on top of the one you're making when you do the initial straight cut with the router. It seems like it would speed things up. Then again, with your experience, you're probably just as fast with just the paper as a guide.

[@theurbanyankee]

Amazing process thank you Bill.

[@paulgains4516]

Bill I love your setup, Tell yu what I know how that glass board is made, and I happen to be a fiberglass laminator by trade, plus I make my own slingshots, all you need is the glass the resin and a press and you can make the glass as thick or as thin as you want, but I make my slingshots out of HDPE its better its harder and its less harmful to the lungs, all those plastic milk bottles don't go to waste and all you need is an oven a mould and some clamps and you got your board made 4 moulds 400x400 and as soon as there cold you start cutting, don't know if you have tried HDPE before but it works real good for what I'm making and they shoot as good as the ones your making, something to consider.

[@garychandler4296]

I've made a couple from retired playground equipment (green) and they are majestically strong; will barely show a fork hit!

[@user-go8wy2mk3r]

Thanks very much !

[@Mainsail1975au]

Nice work there Bill.

[@tripwire0000]

When your using the flush trim bit what are you having the bearing ride against? I've seen where ppl tape a template to the material. How are you getting it from a rough cut to perfect? Thanks

[@r.s.5663]

Nice work Bill

[@christiannemirguet1340]

I love your work !!! Could you send me the plans (drawings) and how to proceed to achieve a slingshort ... thank you

[@paloaprime]

amazing. makes me appreciate the ones you have made for me. do you do the metal ones in house also?

[@erehwyrevekool]

G10, nice!

[@patrickgermond2750]

That looks like making knives lol. I wonder if you should try a 72 inch belt sander with a 1 inch or smaller wheel. I can really hog out some handle material with mine. Did you make those sanding whip type sand paper wheels?

[@jimmynich4791]

Would a scroll saw not cut this?

[@christiannemirguet1340]

Sell you the product of your work, I am interested in your singshort and video, which I find very interesting. ! Thank you

[@mikesipes5305]

Hey Bill how do i get one of your slingshots and what website do i go to order if for sale?

[@Irish_Jiagalo.]

Hi bill. Please I've really been wanting one of these for a while. Either the seal sniper or g10. I really want one for hunting rabbits. Please get back to me bill. I'm so excited. God bless

[@mikesipes5305]

Hey Bill would you make a hunting sling shot with strong bans

[@romanmax8561]

Don't get why make them out of that stuff for when there are other Plastics that are much easier to work with

[@blazehowell4764]

how many people do you know that shoot left handed? I haven't seen very many if any videos of anyone shooting left handed

[@garychandler4296]

I may make one soon,, and show my various designs, when I get time.
