How Do You Make A Good Quality Slingshot?
• Find a good, sturdy, Y- shaped forked stick. It will probably be already on a tree, unless you are very lucky and happen to find one on the floor. If it is still on the tree, use a small saw to take it off the branch. Unless it is your tree, ask the person who owns it first before you do this. The forked stick should be about 1 inch thick at the ‘handle’ and three quarters of an inch thick at the forks.

These measurements don’t have to be perfect. • Once you have the stick/branch, cut off any smaller twigs that maybe coming off it. Once this is done, with a small saw cut off any nuts or large bumpy bits in the wood to make the surface of the wood fairly even. • Take all the bark off the stick with a small knife, so the wood is nice and smooth to hold. (Not neccesary) • If you have followed the previous steps well, you should have a nice slingshot ‘body’ that is smooth but sturdy.
