home made release

[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]
Imanaged to get the release to work. This is an early version. Still learning and hope to have a better one soon. It works like the Carter Evo but the jaw slides into the d-loop with little or no twist as the jaw is at right angles to the handle.

That was quick! I did use my hand as a release at one time;then I moved to compound. Photos are from my camcorder so they are unclear. They hide the mess of body filler.

Surely with your body shape you could use all the filling you can get before you display it on the internet.

You got that right. Notice there was only a skinny hand showing! Any more would have frightened the kids and pet gerbils.
