Re: got an incredible good idea for a trigger!

It is beech wood. Not that is the perfect for spearguns but the only strong piece of wood i got right now.

Also i forgot to mention that this kind of design can hold up to 4 bands and it has low kick because it releases the cevlar strings one by one in a fraction of a second, so the power increases progresively until it reaches its maximum at the half of the stretched bands. The miniature i made works perfectly. The notch on the spear has to be deeper carved so it can take all 4+ bands. Although a spear with shark fins cut exactly behind the fin can hold 8+ bands (when released fron the notch), but who needs that?
