Some Good Catties On Here
B.P.R replied to youcanthide...BANG's topic in Catapult & Slingshot Hunting
Of course they work! ... whether they are practical...thats matter of opinion. A catapult...whether it is multiplex...or a natural... Is only as powerful as the bands you put on it... And only as accurate as the shooter. IMO multiplex is a strong material to make a board cut catapult from.... ive taken plenty of game with one... And them ones in the link are nicely made. -

Brookie... are you saying that only a natural fork... would withstand your field tests? ... -
Must be full of shiit. You start hitting them any further and you'll have to start giving Fire Control orders like an MFC... ... Where you get that from? ...

Here you go baw... Check out this thread... Ive just tested the strength of a hardwood catty...over multiplex.... Think it was ash..or beech... The hardwood split...dangerously...http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/315331-the-strength-of-multiplex-over-hardwoods/?p=3556490 that as absolutely no bearing at all on the quality and superiority of a natural hardwood seasoned fork . firstly if used properly a fork would never be struck like that and secondly if looked after properly seasoned hardwood lasts a lifetime .those home made forks to be honest wouldnt last two minutes out side

If youve got it for the longrun... then thats ofcourse the best outcome... Maybe you should have let it settle a while before taking it out... could have fecked off on you... a complete stranger... But hey... people do things different ways... good luck...

The Strength Of Multiplex Over Hardwoods...

Better with a multiplex core... and the nice wood on the outside.. ... -
They seem decent enough... If you buy straight from dankung its much cheaper

The Strength Of Multiplex Over Hardwoods...
B.P.R replied to B.P.R's topic in Catapult & Slingshot Hunting
Next was the multiplex... 2 direct fork hits... and only 2 small dents... The third hit split the wood on the fork... but didnt snap it... I then hammered it a few times... and it split and 'cracked' off.... notice how it didnt snap completely... The difference is... the multiplex wont snap and send the fork tips back at your face at a dangerous speed...whereas the hardwood...will split down the grain...with ease... and cause damage. -
Today i routered out some multipex blanks... and started a router on a hardwood blank... only the hardwood blank split... Ofcourse due to some error on my part with the router... But the way the hardwood split...with ease... Made me want to test it further... Id routered out 8 multiplex blanks with no issues at this stage.. Ill post 2 videos..of the 2 woods..in the same situation... The first is the hardwood (missing a fork...as it split on the router) ... possibly ash or beech? ... Clamped in... and hit with 12mm steel...from about 2/3feet away... as close as i cou
