Some times ago, I made a sling for another reenactor. This time, I didn't forgot to take pictures but to note the lenght ! So here is the war sling :

Green is wool, white is hemp and brown is linen. Attached to the retention cord are replacement for cracker

A close up of the pouch, with the tennis ball for the size :


Does it make my bottom look fat ? Maybe :p


And opened up :


It will be used with stones (big ones :p ) or clay bullets, like 2100 years ago in my part of the world

In the package, I added fishing weight, 2*100g and 3*75g... I made a happy youtuber (it will be used in the background of his next videos ! *insert fanboy dignified scream*)

Thanks ^^

And yet, I'm not 100% happy with it, should be longer, could be more nicely woven, without the scrotum effect when folded and whitout the weird fold at the ends of the pouch...

But it's still a fine one

Amazing sling Caldou!

Fantastic.

Caldou, well done!

Beautifully woven! It looks like it'd be a pleasure to sling with. What purpose does the green wool tied to the retention loop serve, out of curiosity?

Well done!

Thanks for those message, having it at home for quite a long time before being able to send it I finished by seeing only the negative aspects ^^

@Captain_Twine : they are left-over of the cord and are here to serve as reserve cracker, the person who will use it is living out of sling reach, making it complicated to go and change the cracker by myself ^^
