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".

OMG, I didn't even notice the "little buddy." Ugh, Southern bugs. I love my snow. Love it so much. LOVE. Good job on the "fix." It's interesting how much problem solving we have to do, huh?

Yes always problem solving. But like Lonnie says, if you took the dog out to train and never ran into difficulties the dog wouldn't be learning. So, an old dog can learn new tricks! There's hope for me yet...

Bleh. I'll wave all day, but I ain't gonna hug it.

Great fix! It almost looks seamless.
If I can't run fast, I'll make slow look impressive.

Lookin' good!
I'll give it a try, Dad, but it's going to be really hard...kind of like trying to saw something in half using a banana.

Rachel, that's looking really really good! May I ask, what was the purpose of that steel hanging out?

Thanks
When I epoxy into a wood grip I set it deep, 3 1/2 inches.
I like for the overlay and bellies to each be in contact with the epoxy and the handle material to be deep set into the epoxy. That's my normal way- but not what you do when you're putting on a heel knot, of course

That is the right way to do it Whippy sister. I have had one fall apart at completion. There are so many tears. Yep, yep...better to do it right.

It's the mistakes, which really teach us. If you do everything right from moment one on, you would never be able to say "Yeah, I know that problem. Listen..." , right?

Robby, You're very right. We never reach perfection and we always make mistakes- but we can practice to be a little better each time... And know how to fix something!

100% right, Robby. Experience is a collection of mistakes that one has learned from.
