The "Making of" Gallery - Rachel McCollough

This new Gallery replaces the former "Masters Gallery", which will work from now on as pure archive. Here you will find not only the work and art from folks who sell whips, but also from folks, who create their whips out of pure passion. And we have an additional gallery. It is called "The Gallery - Making of".

Pictures of one of the most recent completed whips. An Amper Style Elite 7’, Bloodwood handle. Grip wrap is tied as a 5x4 instead of a wrap for security.

Rachel, another beautiful whip.
I like the 5x4 better than the wrap method. It looks better and might be more secure.

It's amazing how much the 5 by 4 adds to the overall look - what a beautiful whip!
