This video features a kind of homemade “chain saw”. The weapon consists of eight razor sharp, serrated steak knifes that rotate at fast speed. A battery drill is the power source, using a transmission with a rubber band as a belt.
See how the sharp blades smash things up pretty good!
The entire device is home made, including the pulley wheels. Just the knifes and the drill were bought (cheaply) at amazon.
The video also features three nice handmade conventional slingshots.

A while ago, I was asked by the popular format “Businessweek” to make a “How To” for their series of such articles. My specific task was “How to make weapons from office supplies”.
Now an office is paradise for the eager makeshift weapons maker! Lots of heavy, sharp things around. So I started to play a bit – here are the results.
A part of the video – the pencil shooter – was actually published by them, the other weapons have probably been too effective (= scary lawsuit magnets) – they did not use it.
But for my true fans – here is the full “director’s cut”!

The walkback slingshot was presented in an earlier video already, but due to the lack of space it wasn’t tested with steel balls before.
This test – requested by many viewers – was now performed. Watch how the team warms up and the reliably hit the hay bail from 44 yards distance!
The heavy steel ball goes in about two feet.
This weapon is highly portable and very powerful.
Also, as requested by the audience, the chest plate “Massacre Master” slingshot is tested on longer distances, too – with nice results.

They can – if fired from a powerful slingshot.
Marbles are often used as alternative slingshot ammo. In this regard, The Slingshot Channel tests two very common myths:
- Can marbles penetrate flesh?
- Will marbles shatter when they hit a hard surface?
These myths are checked out, using ballistic gelatin and a solid wall. See the harmless looking glass balls tearing the gelatin into shreds, and see how they chip stone shards from a massive rock…
The message is clear: Marbles are about as dangerous as steel balls when fired from a powerful slingshot.
