Here are some Slings that I have made up they take from a few min to 20 min to make..
This sling uses two strips of leather for the sling pouch..
these things are lethal they are not toys and were used in ancient wars as field artillery and worked very well they they used projectiles that looked similar to a football in shape but maybe 2 to 3 inches in length I am sure the shape is what made it so lethal and it would produce a large wound that I am sure would put anyone out of commistion…
This sling is just made with cord
The nice thing about making these is that you can just undo the weave and all you have a bit of rope in your pocket that way if you are caught well I am sure they will not be able to figure it out for themselves…

I found personal alarms at the dollar store today and have actually been looking for these things years ago PC would remember that ummm what I have done is convert them to be used as perimeter alarms for around camp to give you some pre warning of ether bears or heaven forbid the two legged ones these are very loud so you could set them well away from a camp and still hear them I have made a short vid of the personal alarms you can figure out yourself how they can be setup with just some fish-line connected to the pull string….

OK here is my spoon took me about 2 hours to cut/carve the shape from a chunk of wood and about 3 hours sanding the hardest part is the inside of the spoon… Next time I will take more time to carve the inside as smooth as I can, I could cut the sanding time down to an hour or less I bet…
I tried using a crook knife but found that just did not work for me not enough control.. I used a small cheep wood gouge and that worked OK for me…
Now that I know what works for me I will be looking into buying a good quality spoon gouge for the next spoon project….
