Hi, I finally got caught up on my bridge building and had time to make myself a new slingshot. I used maple with 1 inch .030 latex bands shooting 1/2 inch steel this a comfortable set up for me. I put a finger strap on it so I don't have to grip the handle. I shoot with my fingers on the forks and it takes no effort with my little finger to keep the slingshot square and plumb with the world. The images are front and back.

Beautiful work Roger! The Hawk (or Golden Eagle) and Jack Rabbit are so life like. The frame is great also. I also like to use .030". I like to use it when I shoot with 3/8" steel. Very easy draw and good speed. Flatband Smile
