  1. It is easy enough to make a sling. Just get a piece of two and a half ins. in length and one inch wide. Then get two strong cords, make a hole each side of the leather. Attach your cords, make a loop one one end of cord for your hand and this cord should be three and a half ins. longer than the other, now your sling is ready for use.
