That Mexican Sling Is "Beautiful" ! I think out of all the Sling's shown on the Museum Web-Site "I like the Mexican Style Sling's the Best", Out of all the Sling making tutorial's I've never seen the Mexican Style Sling's being made, It would be Real Nice If some of our "Most Skilled Sling maker's on Slinging.org could make copy's these Mexican Sling's, I'd sure like to add this Sling to my Collection !
