Whip Basics. The Forum

Rachel, that's perfectly astonishing! Well done!

Thank you very much, Mr. Robert I hope to finish up today and Friday.

Wow, Rachel, that's beautiful plaiting. The transitions between the different plaits are perfect. That's something I still struggle with.

Thanks, Mark! Looks to me like you're doing very well! I have a lot to learn..... And I don't think I will ever run out of new things to learn in making whips!

Outstanding work Rachel, I like so much your choice to use these patterns in one color.
According to my opinion more sobrie.
Again Congrats
Gio

Gio, thank you very much! Good to see you, my friend!

#002 "Rachel" nylon stock whip with patternwork, charcoal gray 16 plait with Twisted English Eye and Twisted Taper loaded fall, tapered cracker.
Handle is 18" hand shaped bloodwood with natural kangaroo keeper and grip wrap.

Very nice looking, Rachel! I like the bug.

Thanks, Scott! I felt bad for the bug. He looked so lonely; I chose to include him. He said he was feeling kind of empty, and appeared to people only a shell of what he once was. Poor fella

I Forgot!!

Wood from Whip Nation! Thank you Roy!

Beautiful whip Rachel! I love the way you change the plaiting configuration along the thong. It looks very unique and professional.

Well played. Definitely well played.

Very nice, Rachel.

Mark, thank you!

Thanks, Russell!

Scott, I just couldn't prevent it

Bug.

Bug.

Bug. Damnit.

The whip sure is pretty. The bug parts kind of took me by surprise. *shiver*

Jess thanks! Just think of the shell as bug rawhide

It reminded me of when I was a kid during summer, those cicada husks were handy tools for scaring your sister if there was nothing else to amuse you

Beatiful whip Rachel!

Great looking whip, Rachel - but the bug.... Thank goodness we have no such fauna in Britain!
