Slingshot Release

[Dino4911]

whwre do you buy ruber bands

[rizzy456789]

Wow on of the first videos, can't believe how far we've advanced in slingshot technology with you. Thanks Jeorge.

[gorelik75]

that's awesome! do u consider to start selling them at some stage?

[JoergSprave]

@gorelik75 Nope.

[micmoable]

that's an invention--same as your W slingshot is an invention---you get patent and make some big bucks from some company that produces your ideas man

[longbowzap]

I envision a similar concept using vise-grips pliers.

Joerg, thanks for all of your videos. It has been an excellent resource for me during my build(s). The use of a single band in your "V" model is excellent. It equalizes the energy over the entire band. Keep up the good work.

Love the way you look at the cam after you have done a shot. Reminds me of a cross between the incredible hulk and Neanderthal man! :P

Should have my first slingshot arriving today, one you reviewed in a later video, the ergo 2 hunter. Give me a week and I'll be looking as mean as you or like a complete sissy haha!

[clcincinnatiwolf78]

i want one!

[MrChaosHeadz]

Man, you can make a Crossbow-Like Slingshot with that. How about make one I've seen almost all your video but none I see is pull by the trigger e.g. the airgun you converted is still Pull and Release but not with a gun trigger or is it ILLEGAL in in your country?

[JoergSprave]

Trigger based slingshots may be illegal in Germany (there is some dispute about this issue, though). But anyway a crossbow slingshot makes little sense. Rubber tires out very quickly when you keep it drawn out. You have to draw and release in one quick motion. A loaded crossbow with rubber as the "engine" would loose 50% power after 1 minute already.

@JoergSprave I see thanks for the info. By the way, Jorge I saw some Homemade slingshot rifle videos that has the same Slingshot release they're using a ViceGrip and instead of rubber they use a spring.

[fredaxtpor]

@JoergSprave  What about rubber spearguns??

[jayveebaylon]

can u show use hows its made pls coz i love it so much

[JoergSprave]

Well, you need welding gear and a lathe, plus the skills to operate the equipment. But I guess if you would be in that position, you would not need any explanations.

[GreymanOzzy]

Your slingshots are cool as hell, but why do you speak english on your slingshot videos and german on some of your other videos?

[JoergSprave]

All of my slingshot videos are in English, but I have done three humoristical videos that make fun about the ridiculous gun laws in Germany. These three videos are in German.

[GreymanOzzy]

That makes sense.

[zomgbbqwth]

put a bottom plate so that the ball can rest on it~

[DayLight95]

@zomgbbqwth not needed. the ball is under enough force to be pulled up and against the pouch and opening and of the release

[Makeshiftweapons2XL]

I would like you to either show to workings when taken appart or for you to create a simple new design and show us how to make it from common materials

[7777dmith7777]

1:22 Man he looks dead serious, Like, I will smoke your ass with a slingshot if you mess with me. You would not want to be caught in his house without invitation.. LOL !!! Nice Shooting !!

[lyndonnobles]

awesome invention. Does it seem to affect accuracy in any way?

id love to make one myself. any chance of a tutorial showing how that was made? I promise to call it a "Sprave Trigger". :p

[JoergSprave]

Accuracy benefits from this release, as the forces are absolutely reproduceable. Manual release of the pouch is much more uneven.

Making it involves a lathe and welding equipment, that is probably nothing for a youtube how-to video.

[supra796]

You should get a patent on these and sell them.......very good idea

[bravecat100]

supra796, Instead of a patent which could be up to $30,000, he should just sell it without a patent and decides for a real patent two years later (US patent.) But if there is a hidden patent on it and which he didn't release before then he gets sued for all that he's sold so far. This kind of market is only for risk takers.

[Mrsiepel]

Post some plans on how to make one

[bravecat100]

Instead of posting plans on how to make one, which is illegal if there's a patent on it, he should show how it works and what parts make it work, which this video does okay.

[AlexZettl]

der quick release is geil aber noch geiler is dein gesicht nach dem ersten test schuss^^

[fotograh]

jORg, you must be a pretty good marksman with the slingshot. I bet you are also good with archery?

[8PeacockAngel8]

Intelligent solution. Really! How did you come to mind?

[ThaNorwegianDude]

hmm it would be bad if that metal ball hit your fingers LOL

[walltowall5]

i LOL because he turn around after shooting

like " WTF?!"

[Pwata]

Nice!!!

Very smart...

[crypter27]

You could patton that!

[ThaNorwegianDude]

pattent*

[crypter27]

cool

[The1337muffinman]

sweet

[WaryMeCrazy20]

nice contraption there.

[hotpeng]

Good on you mate! , though you should visit place like Thailand countryside... you'll me amaze of what they can do with a simple tamarine wood slingshot. They require next to no effort to hit the target, take less than a micro second to aim....

[JoergSprave]

Hier gibt es wirklich viele Eichhörnchen, sogar einen Fuchs habe ich schon gesehen. Und das in 10 Minuten Gehweite zur Stadtmitte!

Der "Wald" ist übrigens in Wahrheit der Stadtgarten.

[Nudelsalatbomber]

Dein Häusschen am Waldrand eignet sich sehr gut zur Anbringung einer Eichhörnchenbox!

[GekoGR]

very nice.

[futtkopf]

sehr gutes teil!!!
