Slingshot Sniper Rifle | Build Video

[@leonardsaldana1556]

Yes I would appreciate seeing a beginner’s rifle slingshot video. Thank you for all your videos.

[@andyscott6648]

It warms my heart to see a young man working with hand tools. Very well done!

[@hudsonhertz]

@@andyscott6648 haha thank you 🙏

[@tomgulding1774]

Absolutely! Respect! 👍👍👍👍

[@JosephMontielvlog]

@@hudsonhertz please reply the comments bro how much? I'm interested

[@MrCreative71]

Now that's something full of craftsmanship. Well done!

[@АлександрПирогов-б8ь]

Приклад нужно опустить под углом вниз легче будет целится (как у всех ружей). Молодец руки растут из правильного места.

[@TobinHolz]

I would have bought a vintage bb-gun stock off E-bay for the project... you are already on to the next-level. Wow!

[@im4broke643]

That was very impressive! You can see your dedication with the final product. Only one safety issue I hope you remember with the band saw...drop the guard down very close to your work project. It does several things other than not chopping your fingers off from the top side if an accident hits you from behind....seen that. Next, it was designed to control the blade wiggle for improved accuracy while cutting. Last, with both, safe feelings and closer accurate cuts, you'll see your skill level improve and do less "rasping"...get a small hand planner or a "pull knife" for the longer rasping spots. Good job!

[@hudsonhertz]

Awesome, thanks for the advice

[@moneyman6417]

Hard but very nice work

[@akrisbarnes1106]

Definitely do a beginner, slingshot rifle Build video.

[@carnivorebear8952]

Sweet build. Wish I could do this. My state would probably charge me with manufacturing firearms though. New jermany sucks. Keep up with the awesome builds. Bravo

[@xerkS7]

Beautiful job! Really enjoyed watching from the UK. I teach carpentry and woodworking for a living and you done a great job.

[@leehiller2489]

Might I suggest starting with a simple draw knife in the beginning to move material faster with less effort. Then to the rasp and file.

[@allentuggle2837]

He looks too young to be familiar with Draw Knives.. I guess we should educate ro inspire research and learning.

[@allentuggle2837]

Then on the other hand, He did a good job. Let him continue on and let him learn, like we did.

[@leehiller2489]

@@allentuggle2837 Not everyone has access to "The Woodrights Shop, PBS" that I did growing up. I'm just passing along what I was taught by Roy Underhill, he introduced me to it. Now at 60 I own 7 of them two of which I made myself.

[@yakakiyakaki]

Pretty impressive woodworking skills for a young fella - great job. I am however a bit concerned about your rather twitchy trigger finger!

[@DrewJacobson61]

See what happens when you turn off the TV and Step away from the video games? Good job young man!! ❤❤❤❤

[@mikeh947]

Great job young man, glad to see you take your time and work the wood.

Молодец парень!!! Главное полезное увлечение! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Very talented lad! Keep building !

[@BenNawrath]

Pro tip: those plastic wall calendars people have in their offices that you can write on with a marker, glue won’t stick to them. It’ll dry up and just pop right off. They make awesome glue mats for this kind of thing!

[@spcpitts]

He needs a kiddie pool under the table for the amount of glue he used.

[@LeviMckinlay]

Bro that's a work of art! Love the slingshot rifle videos! Looking foward to pt 2! A beginner slingshot rifle build series would be pretty sick 👍

[@JUTIonkona]

I just purcashed the trigger mechanism and im going to build this. Thank you so much for inspiring me so much❤❤❤

[@amduck4114]

I just ordered a parts kit with the trigger, bands, ect, you made almost all of it with craftsmanship, all awesome work!

[@passage888]

Can you tell me where you order parts for triggers?

[@ahmedmani1051]

your wood working skills are top notch very impressive

[@chrispbacon4519]

That's a thing of beauty, awesome work.

[@enzobrambilla3692]

Più bella realizzazione visto . Lavoro pulito,ben fatto e molto curato. Complimenti

[@mikejung3908]

Wow from the land down under where we arnt allowed to throw a pencil without getting fined for launching a deadly missile that is one beauty of a rifle well done, love that nice action that devides when you pull the trigger, never seen anything like it.

[@alexisleon23]

Greetings and respect 🙏 from Greece 🇬🇷.

[@ericbaillie1098]

You have a good eye for fair shaping but use a spoke shave rather than a rasp. Works faster, more control, less mess.

[@hansstofberg43]

Like to how it shoots. Indeed a bit complicated but the nicest I have seen so far

[@user-McGiver]

Great build!... here in ''overregulated'' Australia, you can't have a slingshot, unless is something you build by yourself... (!) I guess they mean the old wooden Y-shaped slingshots, but the ''letter of the Law'' can be translated to something like this... great for target practicing and small game hunting...

[@peterduxbury927]

Another cheap addition - could be the use of a Laser Pointer, with a small range of adjustments, to aid the aiming and accuracy to the Target.

[@kevindevine-k4j]

You're a very talented young man. With your skills , you have a very bright and profitable future ahead of You. I really enjoyed watching this field

[@Theyellowchild]

True skill and dedication,that’s a brilliant job

[@Rjs-1949]

A good router would shorten the build time

[@bobbylusk1874]

Would love a beginners build video... That's such a nice build man. I like how you do all the shaping by hand. Looks awesome!

[@percisionshot4331]

Dude that is some very fine wood working and a great build.

[@grub1962]

Fantastic Hudson.... You definitely win the McGuyver woodworking award. I made a couple out of some baltic birch and an old wooden Hockey Stick shaft. they work so well. The first one was OTT, the second was TTF like yours and so much easier to aim. The scope and Bi-pod are such a Tacticool touch. Well done :)

[@hudsonhertz]

Thanks man, glad you like it, thanks for the comment!

[@stevengrimes4473]

I would enjoy that build video! Keep up the great work, love the videos!

[@johnkemas7344]

[@vincentlivoti4184]

Nice job on the stock.

[@BallubaFishingChainsaws]

kid u got talent. at your age to do that build is amazing. keep uo the great work. greatings from Romania!

[@natemanmi]

You need to invest in a draw knife, spoke shave and hand planer. Looks good!

[@MrJames19676]

Superb workmanship mate.

[@dougbond6007]

Always keep your love for building and designing it will take you far in life

[@spcpitts]

You need a router for the edges. It will give you a uniform look all the way around. Kind of cartoon looking. But it takes off material fast and uniform. Saves a ton of rasping. Also you should look into kutzall disc's for grinders. I lost my rasp when I discovered them.

[@justinjones9042]

Looks awesome, great craftsmanship

[@hinanobubbie5257]

Awesome, you amaze me with your talents. Thank you for sharing.

[@mm-oh4oe]

NEAT my young friend! Thanks

[@troymcconnell5832]

You should sell stock in yourself ... im sure you would do well! very nice ... thank you for sharing!

[@richardclemence8063]

You should look into a spoke shave, they are a very useful tool.

[@BlameJason]

Amazing work! You could use a palm router to knock down those edges in no time if you want to make your life easier. Ryobi makes a decent palm router for around $100 I believe.

[@hudsonhertz]

@@BlameJason nice! I’ll check it out, thanks for the comment!

[@fernandsavoie6641]

Great job! Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Atlantic Canada.

[@bhumendradas9073]

You can use 20 to 30 hacksaw blades, same direction teeth, tied up together as a grinding tool. It's much better than the one you are using here. It saves time.

[@VojtaKolaja]

Paráda, kde lze zakoupit spouštěcí mechanismus?

[@barrypooley3192]

Have you never heard of an angle grinder with sanding discs 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ otherwise good stuff

[@Midia-2023]

I wanted to make one and you gave me a great idea

[@mirandahotspring4019]

Beautiful build! But have you thought of attaching a rod to the trigger and making a bullpup design to reduce the overall length?

[@The_workshop11]

Great work! You should look into gun smithing you would be good at it!

[@royenator]

bro that looks awesome

[@machfiver753]

Keep it up building things you'll be a master at it by the time you hit 30 if you do

[@karlhawley342]

did you make that trigger or did you purchase a trigger mechanism

[@hudsonhertz]

I bought it on Amazon

[@LittleGreyWolfForge]

Please use your bandsaw properly. Watch a couple of videos on it, and you’ll get that little problem you got there fixed 😉

[@johncorlett3699]

yep top bearings should be adjusted to as close as possible to the wood, for a start

[@andrewhudson2860]

Hi there, Great job but you could make it a lot easier, just get yourself a farriers rasp. It should be easy to get one in a country full of horses. They are brilliant and fast for shaping wood. Be safe. A

[@Tom-yd5lg]

Very nice work, Hudson Greatings, Tom from Germany

[@FlowerPowerOnTour]

Wow, great stuff!

[@jimberjamber8540]

You inspired me to get a little crafty and make one of these with scraps I had laying around. Found some 1x4 pine boards, slapped them together, carved them out, stuck a long 1x2 on top, and made a little lever action trigger out of an old hex wrench and some screws. All I had to do was buy a slingshot and I went with one of those Daisy P51's with the grip and arm brace, because the frame had a little bracket that held it together so I used it to mount the frame on the end of the rifle. It's crude looking, but DAMN does it shoot hard. It's got a 3 foot pull. I'm nailing a small tree in my backyard 100+ yards away. I can't wait to experiment with bands. Excellent work dude! Keep innovating!

[@hudsonhertz]

That’s awesome, glad you figured it out. I might make a beginner slingshot rifle video in the future so if you wanna follow along you can make another one. Great job. Good luck👍

[@uncletiggermclaren7592]

What kind of glue is that?. I have never used a glue where that much is a good thing.

[@hudsonhertz]

It’s gorilla glue, I definitely went a little overboard. The previous one I made was lacking glue and I had to do patch work so I didn’t want to risk it.

[@uncletiggermclaren7592]

@@hudsonhertz If I can make a suggestion, you should get a two part wood glue. Not one of the ones with the spray-on part two , but one of the ones you mix up. They make a far superior bond, so strong that when you try to pull them apart, the glue doesn't fail, the actual wood tears apart. And they will also make the finished article stiffer, there is no give in them. The gorilla glues are always rubbery, in my experience. And as a bonus, the two pot glues are water-proof, and if you wait till it is completely set, you can sand it like wood. And it will fill any moderate gaps on your join surfaces, I think.

[@hudsonhertz]

Tighten your band saw blade. The knob to do that should be at the top. It should sound like the E string on your guitar.
