Hi Johnny,<br>
<br>
I'm a mad slinger as well, see a few words and images here: www.geocities.com/zozergames/sling.html<br>
<br>
Both me and my son get down to the beach to sling. I've just made myself a nice leather Roman sling, but I still use beach pebbles (an infinite supply!).<br>
<br>
I'd love to make some lead bullets ... I can get a hold of some lead - I must try it!!!!! At Arbeia, Quinta have experimented making lead glandes using both sand and clay moulds. I want to try slinging some.<br>
<br>
BTW: which method do you prefer? What kind of ranges do you get? What's your sling like?<br>
<br>
Its great to find a fellow slinging nut! <p>Paul Elliott<br>
