Here are 3 of my home made slingshots. The 2 on the left are made from hazel with theraband gold bands and the 1 on the right is made from marabel plum which grows inour back garden, can't remember the name of the bands but they came from Wasp slingshots.

Nice , can’t beat a good catty , never made one of my own , might have to give that a go ..... how have you secured the pink tubes ?

they are secured with 9.5mm ball bearings pushed inside the tubes, it's a bit fiddly.You just have to make sure your holes are not to big otherwise the bearings can pull through. In hindsight i find the flat bands are much better and take less fitting. i may swap over to them.
