Plywood multiplex catty with palm swell

[Dannytsg]

Up for sale is my Plywood Multiplex with palm swell and it is fitted with quality blue dub dub tubing. Has had a handful of shots over it since it was finished and apart from one fork strike (due to my bad shooting) it is in very nice condition. The wife is forcing the sale as I just have too many (or so she says)

Asking £20 posted and paypalled

And a picture of the fork hit - cosmetic only

i cannot buy your slingshot, but do you have any detailed pics of the tubing attachment?! it looks like it's just pushed through a hole and then folded back?!

Yep that is exactly it and it is retained by a small piece of locking rod on each. It's one of the simplest methods of attaching through the forks.

Lovely catapult.

What is the distance between the forks?

Not familiar with tubing, what weight/diameter shot would "blue dub dub" be suitable for?

Looks like you have it set up for OTT shooting, does it also work TTF?

Approximately 50mm between the forks but I can measure more accurately later when home from work. It doesn't shoot great TTF and is susceptible to fork hits so OTT is the preferred method with a bit of flip.

As for the shot I always shoot M10 hex nuts which weigh 10 grams and this is capable of 200 fps which will give you about 15ft/lbs of energy. The blue dubdub is a medium pull, fast tubing and is 6mm internal diameter and 10mm outer diameter.

For reference I have attached a video of gamekeeper John testing orange dubdub, which is only 5mm internal and 7mm outer and slightly less powerful than the blue in terms of it's composition and you can see the results for yourself.

If anyone would like I can also look to chrono this myself later and post the video.

Bit of a bump to say if someone wants to make me an offer I will happily consider it.
