This could be an alternative (attaching it with zip ties through the gaps). It looks that in this case attaching the arrow rest might prove trickier.
Apparently, this type of arrow rest does not reduce the arrow speed, due to the gaps for the fletching. I assume the tradeoff must be reduced durability (maybe less support too, as it has less whiskers).

1842 looped with supersure pouch is my choice for shooting 1/2 steel configuration. I have short 33inch draw and 7inch active pull... looking forward 1632 recently ordered.
Thanks for chance to win!

ordered panther slingshot, and waiting on snail mail.. Here's what I've collected and kept so far..
Thanks for this giveaway!
I prepared the set in the picture. The ‘Frame’ is 20.5 x 1.4 cm, the pouch is 7 x 1.4 cm. I used 2 pieces of 22.5cm, 1745 tube (measured before tying the tube). I tied the tube on the ‘Frame’ leather piece from opposite sides so that when bending the leather in a ‘V’ shape, the tube would come over the top in both ends.
This ‘Leather Frame’ is much more comfortable to me than bare tube. It does not roll from the finger or uncomfortably press on the ring finger or little finger. Also, because the leather is not stretching and will not roll, I can form the slingshot frame with my fingers before pulling the pouch back. I find this more intuitive (probably, because I come from a non-frameless slingshot).
Now, while I think this is a very interesting concept, I am still not fully convinced. This slingshot is very simple and very lightweight, but I can draw only half the weight I normally draw, and it feels awkward. Also, after not so many shots my left hand starts hurting from the pull (I guess this is just a matter of training the hand and getting practice).
Final thoughts: I would go with a non-frameless slingshot whenever possible, for the increased draw weight. I also like my frames (from an aesthetical point of view), and I would like to build my collection up over the time.
So, for me the frameless slingshot is another option, but definitely not my first option. I would rather take with me something like the POM X6 slingshot (incredibly light and quite compact), than just go with a frameless slingshot.

Sometimes I also set them up as a cocktail set, always have a set at the ready to change for some different setup or situation, forgot to add this in first comment.

Sounds Good and a Nice Idea as well if it works for you Just Do it mate, or you can try Flat Band Frameless as well i can see it would be nice to shoot with because flat band Do Not cut/press in to the fingers at all.
I'm usually shoot only 4.5mm BBs because they cheep and not too dangerous to use in a city. BB are very light so they don't have mass to store energy and only way to get power is to accelerate them as fast as possible, it was a challenge to find fast bands and even harder to find very light but sturdy pouch.
Here what I found to work:
Semi tapered Pure latex .125 Amber tubing works best out of tubing choices, 2040 works barely since they already too heavy for BBs.
But the best choice for speed is tapered flat-bands, I have good results (braking Champlain bottles, piercing can food, killing a rat) with Teraband Black or Blue cut to 20cm length and 2-2.5 cm on one side and tapered to 0.8-1 cm on the other.
As for pouch It was very hard to find thin light leather that wont disintegrate after few shoots, light weighting pouch is essential since it is the biggest factor that will slow down your BB. I come up with a synthetic material that is strong, thin, light and very cheap to make by sandwiching synthetic fabric between two layers of duct tape and then cutting(yes cut all sides since if you just fold tape around fabric the folded edges will develop tears quickly) out needed 1cm wide strips for pouches, I find it helps to use some baby powder on this pouches so they are not sticky.
The last advice To BB shooters; plug converters to flat-bands are great for Dankung slingshots they let you use favorite Dankung slingshot with tubes and makes band changing as quick as tubes but to make your shoots as repeatable as possible try making area where bands attach to fork as thin as possible by folding flat-band into a tube shape
