The question is never if it rolls. Only how.
True words, Master Rachel...!

Never if, but how! This is so true, as spoken by Legend ;) The Robby Rollout test never lies!

Thank you, Ben!

Terrific, Rachel! And I, too, think those belly colours would make a great overlay....

Thank you, WS! Though I strongly disagree on the Whippiest part!!!! Just different, not better!!! You got it above all. Have you seen those art handles by the other Whippy Sister? Nobody else does that.

Beautiful work, Rachel. I especially like how the handle turned out.

Thank you, Scott! Can't beat what the wood already possesses, just bring it forward!
I really love to see what's in each one!

Awesome handle Rachel. It might be an illusion but it looks a little beefier than past handles.
Wax doesn't like the cold does it.
It looks like another superb Wolf Creek whip.
Great job. :)

Superb, Rachel! (And I like the slightly beefier looking handle a lot....)

Thank you Ron, you are correct on wax and cold not getting along! Yessir the handle is beefier; this whip is a little heavier.

Mr. Robert, I like the beefier handle as well!
Thank you!

Jyri, thank you!

Outstanding work, Rachel!
The beefier handle looks very, very stylish and the grain of the wood is very, very beautiful!

All the best

Awesome job Rachel. That is my idea of the perfect cowboy’s working whip. It’s built to stand up to abuse
