Truly inspired! Zer gut.

Excellent!! I just knew you could not resist. In my opinion you're design far exceeds anything I've seen in the way of slingshot rifles. I especially like the cocking mechanism it is both clean and very safe when compared to a winch or ratcheting clamp. I may have to borrow the idea:). Anyway thanks.

Sorry Joerg I didn't know they were illegal in Germany. Still I'm sure it would have been cool. BTW I am working on one as I type(I'll post it as soon as I have a camera). I never thought about the bands being drawn for to long,for my slingshot rifle I will be using some really strong surgical tubin...

Hello Joerg. I have been following you're thread for a while so I know you are the master of slingshots. However I was wondering,have you ever considered building a slingshot rifle or pistol? If not then you should look them up because with you're skill you could probobly design a superior weapon. S...

I'm not sure if they have this where you live,but have you looked for alluminum foil tape? It's a great and reliable burst disc material it is very convenient also because it comes as a roll.[/img]

Ah this is where ball valves truly shine!!! I am really looking forward to seeing what sort power you get over a longer range,say 60yds? Oh and I really like you're stock. All you really need to do is square off the bottom of the handle and then sand and varnish it and you'd have a very nice looking...

Or how about some long range shooting so that we could see the balls in flight. That would be awsome.

Ijahman you maniac! You've done it you've finally done it!!!

BTB: thanks for the tank info!!! I've used those tanks on my vortex cap but never had a pressure guage to measure with. DWV: a rat trap spring would be great. Especially for a smaller valve.

While I generally like larger projectiles scaling it down 1/4" wouldn't be to bad. I'd probobly get more shots off my tank anyway. Speaking of tanks while my intention was to use this at high pressure more likely than not it will be run on a propane tank which brings me to the question:what pressure...

Hello. I am planing a new project and have a question. It is going to be an all metal ball valve musket,obviously the valve will need to be spring loaded in order to achieve any kind of performance. The ball valve will be used in conjunction with a burst disc and the valves handle will be replaced w...

Sorry I haven't posted it yet(no camera at the moment) it's not impressive visually it's just a typical vortex cap that has a body/stock and is portable. I will however post it and a bunch of other things soon.

While I cannot understand you're diagram Ive got an idea that could be suitable. Recently I built a vortex cap BBMG it has a capacity of only 110 rounds. Due to the fact that it needed to be portable I built it with a small hose as a momentary chamber this let's it get bursts of 10-30RDS per trigger...

Ha! That's funny I build bows and often opt for knives and axes rather than planers files etc.

Well Im glad somebody finally decided to take this idea a step farther. It seems to me that alot of people have thought of this but held back because the design called for ball valves. Oh and Im glad to hear that Im not the only one here that has limited tools.
