When my back aint hurtin and I didn't pack my pipe, I like to make and use slings to chuck all manner of heavy objects at high speed over a fair amount of distance.

Looks sweet. I'm a member of Slinging.org, here's some stuff I've made:

Nice.

Made an atlatl yet? I tried, couln't find cheap ammo..decided to hold off on that till later.

I'm making more slings and beginning work on some other contraptions. I've always wanted to make a trebuchet, but I think thats gonna put me on the outs with my HOA..

Trebuchet-yes

Atlatl- yes

Trebuchet threw tennis balls, the atlatl didn't really work very well...

I use a sling staff mine is small but can launch a good size rock 90 feet!

 

[Gigmaster]

I make slings, atlatls, slingshots, bows, arrows and do flint-knapping.

I've never made a staff sling, yet, but it is on my list.

 

[Silent Stalker]

Now i've made a lot more slings, and realized 90 ft isn't much. With my best sling i can throw a rock well over 200 feet.

Slinging... The most awesome weapon ever.

I bought and built a Trebuchet kit from Ron Tom. I think the site was rlt.com . It is a floating arm model. I actually got a golf ball to go about 175 feet.
