Hi Chaps
Having decided to make a start to turning my antler mountain into some useful stuff . I set about making a catapult. I selected a fork which felt good in the hand and set to work with a small saw and some sandpaper.
I added double theraband gold elastic to the finished catapult and I am pleasantly surprised how well they shoot.

Thanks for the feedback fellas. A friend of mine shoots loads of stags every year and is kind enough to pass the antlers on to me.
I am pretty green when it comes to working with antler but I guess with practice I will improve. My next project is going to be a firesteel holder/handle combo. I will stick a pic up of the finished article.:)
