Working on my second attempt. They are a lot of fun to make. The creepy face relates to a research project. Try a Google search with "The Coney Island Funny Face" "Asbury Park Tillie" and "Alfred E. Neuman." The face also makes a great target.

Morphy Interfector Viris Spurii Offline Checkmate Posts: 5401	Re: Pictures of Slings and Slinging Reply #5455 - Sep 9^th, 2018 at 9:38am Beautiful work Jaegoor. Is the tab historically accurate? I imagine one would have to have something like a tab or a knot to sling with such thin cords.

Flint -

Thank you for the compliment. The loom cuts the weaving time substantially. The warp is jute twine and the weft is acrylic yarn. Before I cut the sling off the loom, I gather the jute twine around the paracord release and retention cords and bind it with the knots that you use to make a paracord or jute bracelet (there is a good explanation here: http://www.madebyhippies.com/hemp/howtotiehempjewelry.html)
