Video tutorial on how to make a wooden slingshot.

The manufacturing method of wooden slingshot is described in detail as follows:

First, the production method:

1. Prepare a board about 22 cm long, 2.5 cm wide and 0.8 cm thick. A piece of wood about 50 cm long, 2.5 cm wide and 0.8 cm thick, a saw, sandpaper and a small rubber band.

2. Cut two small pieces of wood, about 3 cm long and 0.8 cm thick, and saw with a saw. Saw the big wooden strip into two halves with a length of 22cm, and grind the flat side with sandpaper.

3. Fix two small wooden blocks and two large wooden strips together to form a T-shape, clamp them with pliers, and tie the slingshot at both ends of the T-shape with slingshot rubber bands. In order to test the elasticity, a small piece of cork should be shot within 20 to 30 feet when stretching.

Second, the slingshot introduction:

1, slingshot, popular in the 1970s and 1980s. Slingshot is a cold weapon or a game tool. Slingshot is generally composed of bow frame, rubber band and leather bag. It is usually a "ya" shape made of branches. Rubber bands are tied at both ends of the rubber band, and a piece of skin wrapped in a projectile is tied in the middle of the rubber band.

2. The strength of the slingshot depends on the tension of the rubber band and the rebound speed of the rubber band. The greater the tension of the rubber band, the greater the weight that the projectile can match, and the faster the rebound speed of the rubber band, which can provide the projectile with greater initial velocity. The heavier the projectile, the higher the muzzle velocity and the greater the power. According to the launching mechanism, slingshots can be divided into bow slingshots and rubber-band slingshots, and bow slingshots have the most primitive bow slingshots and slingshots.
