New toy
My neighbors cut some trees down and removed some brush . I seen this fork in the pile brush and I think it will make a pretty nice catapult when it drys out which won't take long in this Tx sun . I put this together fast temporary to see if I would like and I like it ..

I'm always checking the forecast for "flying flaming boulders" just in case TGR has built a trebuchet in his back yard...

Re: New toy
I cut the band tie grooves , sanded it and put some clear on it . This is the natural color no stain . I shot it yesterday before painting and this is the way I designed it and the way I will hold it to shoot .

Re: New toy
It is a good shooter and is one going to be my favorite one . I've shot over 200 rds in it before I paint it to get a feel of it and make any adjustment to the wood if needed . It is not a true OTT catapult , the bands are on a slight angle . . If you note my thumb is in middle of the fork and in the fork window . It makes a super sight and is my POA easy and the bearing will not hit my thumb .Sir Henry wrote:Can't wait for the range report.

Here is a better pic . If you enlarge you can see the worm holes I left in it to give it a little character and give it a vintage look .

Re: New toy
2 things Duke never did #1 is never chewed anything up and the #2 thing he never messed in the house . I had a dog door and he could go in and out anytime he wanted . Once in a blue moon he will get in the trash . If he don't greet me at the door when I come home he has been in the trash .Sir Henry wrote:You mean Duke didn't chew on it?
