hey guns, new here =]

a few years ago i played with the spearfishing stuff and now i want back into it, im playing with a few different ideas as to what kinda sling shooter i wanna use but i want to make my own... im shying away from a spear gun because i dont like how u cant make the arrows and such, half the fun for me is making my own... i made one out of 3/4 pvc but im looking into square tubing instead it seems like it would be easier to hold this way. so if possible can anyone post some pictures of their hawaiian slings??? id love to see a homemade speargun also =]

any pics is greatly appriciated, thanks everyone =]
 
No photos at the moment, but I took a small piece of nylon, drilled a hole part way through to act as a cup for the back of a shaft, and tied both ends of a 3/8" band to it. Very simple setup. I play with it, but low visibility makes it practically unusable for real hunting. The cup sits at the back of the shaaft, and the middle of the loop is around my thumb. The shaft sits between my thumb and forefinger.
