Hi, I finally got caught up on my bridge building and had time to make myself a new slingshot. I used maple with 1 inch .030 latex bands shooting 1/2 inch steel this a comfortable set up for me. I put a finger strap on it so I don't have to grip the handle. I shoot with my fingers on the forks and it takes no effort with my little finger to keep the slingshot square and plumb with the world. The images are front and back.

Thanks, The images are hand burned into the maple ( pyrography) Fish I will put some pics on the site. I had it book marked I will see if I can find it. You might have to post a link for me. Here is one I did on a piece of 1/2 inch plywood I call it heading for breakfast.
