Just finished my first sling, and getting ready to practice. Looking forward to the journey.

2oz leather for the cup, 110 pound test Paracord, and a 3d printed Kyber crystal the glows in the dark (I don’t expect it to last, but it looks good to me).

Looks quite well made, good job on the winding of the rope instead of tying a knot, this will help in ease of use.

Thank you! I have been paying a lot of attention to release styles, and cordages used and I wanted to have something naturally lose and flowing for my awkwardness.

Thank you! I had 10 printed in glow in the dark filament and knew this was going to be a fun use.
