Gio. I know your work, and I cand hardly wait until the parcel is in the garage 
.
I saw this lovely whip made for another customer and felt in love immediately. Gitte is REALLY looking forward to wear this lovely belt.
I posted in the wrong thread, I'm sorry!
Gio, this whip is perfection in so many ways...
Pure eleganceThe belt is outstanding as well!
Love, love!!!!
Amazing as always Gio!
This is the place to comment (The Making of"), the "Gallery" is for showcasing the photos.
So, I will have to delete the comments in the "Gallery of"
Please in the future post your comments in this thread and not the "Gallery of" for any maker featured there.
I thank you for your cooperation.
Ron
This is the right thread Rachel, the other one isn't .

Ron

Thank you Ron!
I think there is Zorro's whip as many as the movies..
Differently from Indy whip where the whips have a specific design and shape, there isn't a typical Zorro whip.
From the early movement you can see a long black whip sometimes a bull whip, sometime a target Whip and at least a stock whip.
For these reasons, I think that the Zorro whip can be always interpreted by each Whipmaker in different ways.
Sorry for my error

Gorgeous work, Gio!
Gio - I love your way of taking pictures. Sometime I think the photos lies and the are some fake about them - but there are not
Not my pics and the real objects shooted
You can guarantee as owner of my whips
Jocking a part Thanks Flamming I understood what you try from say...
I use my mobile for shooting the pics..
I try to photograph the objects in many and different corners to the purpose to give the maximum number of information in terms of parameters of the object...
For this reason I prefer shooting and posting more pics...
It will be more easy to me taking a singol pics and post it...
In this way I would have a gain in terms of time but I would lost in terms of information...
Anyway way nothing pics can compare the sensation of a real objects in your hands...
Gio - I can guarantee.
If I get the opportunity to participate in the meet and greet, I will bring them, so our friends here can see and try
:l and you will be a great testimonial!!
Here Below two closeup:
The first pic shows how i start to fix the 12 strands to make te point of the belt.
The second pic shows the mandrel that i use to prepare the three gaucho knots that i've placed on the handle of the Flamming's whip.
Gio, even your mandrel is classier than mine!
)) you make me smile
Hello All,
in the next few days i'll post a few whips recently done.
Here below a Raiders style 8ft.
Thanks in advance
Yours
Gio
Beatiful Gio! How you get the handle so much thinner than the thong? Cutting bellyes in a yoge?
Thanks Jyri, exatly!
i start with a nail about 7mm wide over a smal core, over the real core, over the first 4 plaited belly with a joke, over the first bolster that starts about at 2cm from the end of the handle.
Over the first bolster there is a 4 plaited belly with a joke, over the second belly there is the second bolster BUT this time the bolster starts from the butt of the handle.
