A functional design is also dependent on the condition.  The type of production is special.

This is my cortaillod sling (I didnt make a copy, i just wanted to test the design). It is much bigger than the original and works very well.

It has a very clean release and the stones fly with a lot of power. It does not need a lot of force, to get amazing speed and works with normal stones (no special ammo needed)

Danke. Ich werde bald noch einmal versuchen diese Version zu machen, aber darauf achten, dass sie die Größe des Originals hat. Um das machen zu können, brauche ich aber erstmal mehr Schnur.
Denkst du, dass eine flache Mitte Vor- oder Nachteile im Vergleich zu einer Runden (Originalen) bietet ?

Every once and awhile we get people on here that start making slings and get good really fast. I feel like we have had a couple of those in the last year.
