hemp sling construction
#2
Nets and slings, you've found yourself a nice hobby Big Grin

To speed things up and make life easier, as well as reducing the drag of the sling cup through the air, simply forget about the "loom", and split the cord.

Take a look at the sling on the second page, photo 15 in the missile gallery. Such a sling can be made is just over 30 minutes.
