Mr. Robert I am envious.
I'm looking forward to the report when you get good feather weather.

Robert, we were talking about my keeping track of my whips and I went through and counted. Feather would be my #6 build. It's interesting how quickly they build up. Circuitus, which I am working on today, will be number 12. For those of you doing this for a long time, do you know how many whips you have made exactly? Do you keep track in a book or something?

When you take pictures, WS, you can lay an index card with the whip # in one for your records. That way, if you somehow miss writing it down but have the photos, you can find it if you need to.
Congratulations on a beautiful whip, Mr. Robert!

Jessie, 11 whips done and all ready have a slot here in this section of your own. 
It does not surprise me at all.
Good job.
The number of whips people have made might be a good topic all on it's own.

I have a book with details of every whip I've made, all the dimensions, name (if I've given it one), who it went to and colours on the overlay.

Very nicely done Jessie.
Can we get a better pic of the veneer detail?
How long is the handle?
Does it come with a frame for wall display storage when not in use? Fine art usually does you know.
Really good job.

It has a 12" handle.
Best I can do, Ron until it warms up and I can spend some time with my welder.

Very nicely done and it looks like the copper is well protected so it won't oxidize.
Thanks.

Beautifully done! Seeing the handle finally paired to a whip is awesome!

Jessie - I really love the carving on the handle of your last whip. Awesome job.
