Anyone have a plan for a laminated ply slingshot body?

Naaahhhh, he said laminated. It's gotta be like this - YYY (3 ply) but for a real good one, that 11 ply is better YYYYYYYYYY

Questions like this remind me of getting smacked in the back of my head by my Old Man when I laughed at my Mom for trying to find the cooking instructions on the hot dog package. Really.

I've got a plan for one made of Mesquite, but not laminated ply - shouldn't take much to adapt it, except to reverse the faces for use in Australia.

Any plan'll do. I just want something more elegant than the old tree-fork and rubber band to get the birds & possums out of my garden with. I'll just turn the plans upside down and transform them to 240V AC.

OK, thanks all for the Y's, but I was really hoping for:

Why not make yourself a potato gun? :)

You know, I can't decide if this is for real or a troll. Seriously. I used to make slingshots out of a good hanger a couple of rubber bands, elastics, and a rectangle of leather. Highly accurate and very deadly. Hunted with them all the time. What is it that you are trying to do? Do you want a usable slingshot or a pretty one or what? Inquiring minds are very curious.
