Skills for sling construction

[Rhiannon]

Which ones go into the creation of a sling and bow. Sewing?, Construction? your Dexterity? Anyone know the contributing factors (Aside form the obvious Fibre quality foior slings and wood for bows)?

[sabinati]

sling = survival, bow = marksman

[Rhiannon]

sling = survival, bow = marksman

Thanks,
Survival determines sling quality?..lol Strange indeed. But ok, off to level it up then. Least I know which one now.

i wouldnt say its strange. a sling has nothing to do with marksmanship, its just a basic "tool"....

Why then I get a q25 sling from average q 30,6 strings (35,31,31,28,28) with 35 survival?

[Grog]

maybe mm is involved then. whats your mm?

I recall recently in thread using the word "Claim", as such, when asking clarification of one the equations on something. To get a "because it is" needle form another poster. Well THIS is why I used the word "claim". After playing so long I wouldn't trust the "annoucned claims" of what does what and how from experience if anything relevant like life depended on it..LOL. So I agree , it is a real good questtion...so the "claim" is that your survival + quality of material = sling production...ummm, then I 2nd it...why did danath come out with a q25 sling based on his input?

[sabinati]

danath "claims" his strings were q35, 31, 31, 28, 28

Could be that dexterity is involved in making slings.

[sabinati]

i don't think so
