Slingshot With Wrist Strap! (All 3D Printed)

thingiverse

This is a slingshot I modeled and designed so I could just have a little fun and shoot targets. However, this is not a toy and can very easily hurt someone, maybe even kill someone/something. Be very careful with weapons even if they're just toys, or look harmless because you could really hurt someone or something. There are 3 basic parts of this slingshot, the Body, the Extension, and the Strap. To assemble the slingshot it may require a little sanding if your tolerances are not very good. I added a .3mm tolerance to all parts, but on some printers that may not be enough, so a little after care might be needed. ASSEMBLY You will need: 1x Slingshot Body 1x Wrist Strap, Strap 1x Slingshot Pouch 2x Wrist Strap Extensions 2x Wrist Strap Caps 2x 5mm Wide Latex Tubes To start off you need to take your Tubes and as shown in the picture, you need to thread each side through its 2 holes. (This doubles the power of the slingshot) Next you need to tie a pouch to the latex tubes, so that you can actually shoot things with the Slingshot. Now you take the Slingshot Body, and both of your Wrist Strap Extensions. You take the Extensions and put them into the 2 holes on the Body. The longer part should go in the hole. Next you take your Wrist Strap, Strap and put it in below the 2 holes on the Extensions, that way it won't come out as you're shooting it. (Note: As you're putting the Strap in, make sure it's not too difficult because the Extension piece may break and you may have to reprint it.) Now you position the Extensions where you want them, and put the 2 caps in the front part of the Extensions on the other side of the holes on the Slingshot. You may need to tap them into place gently so as to not break them. Once you to all of that, you should be pretty much done! Just remember always be careful and don't aim at anything you don't intend on killing.
