Longers7 720 Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 Well after my failed attempt with the oak milbro that snapped after a fork hit, I set about making another, just this time with a multiplex core. Made this one from ash, with walnut spacers and walnut palm swell. I've banded it up and it feels so much stronger with the added multiplex core and confident it could withstand fork hits.

Jake w 232 Posted April 2, 2014 Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 Very nice catapult but just a quick question mate is multiplex just ply wood Cheers jake w Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Longers7 720 Posted April 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2014 Yeah it is ply mate, but it's birch ply rather than normal construction ply. Multiplex is normally used in making furniture. Construction ply is ok for catties it just doesn't look that nice, if you can get ply then it's good for practising making different catties with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
