That's a nice pattern with the leather, I've seen it on horse tack before. Do you just criss cross thru the slits?

Yes the strap is run back and forth through the slits. It is a simple and somewhat popular design for tack. You can make an entire bridle set using slits in the material without ever running a single stitch.

Beautiful slings, Pikåru.

In the shape, structure and position of each stone, there is recorded a small piece of history. So, slinging them, we add a bit of our history to them.

Small woven sling.
With the small shot I made this sling and it has done nice. I think this sling will throw better with lead or other small heavy shot.
This sling is a modified split pouch. If you look closely you can see the overlap of the straps. I am going to try making a bigger version with heavier cord.

Big brother to my previous posting.
When completed I will call this sling "The Pikaru".
def: Pikaru: Rascal; rogue; tricky fellow; jocular; scoundrel; knave; villain.

Yes. In time all the way down to the release knot. If you split the strands and make smaller, tighter braids past the release knot it'll last longer.
