Whip Basics. The Forum

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?

he's waving at Miss Jessie.

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.

Ha!!!

Great fix! It almost looks seamless.

Thanks, Craig!

Lookin' good!

That is one good looking belly Rachel!
I have never got the hang of tt cores but maybe one day i give it a try.

Thanks Scott and Jyri!

Jyri you can do it

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.

WS I've had several whip hiccups myself

Ohh that's interesting! Thanks for the info ^_^

Welcome, Sparky

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

Yep.

Valid point Robby!

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.
