Whip Basics. The Forum

Tyler, sorry for the flash back.

Ron

Whatever doesn't kill me, only makes me stronger :P That said, if I get one of the conglomerations of sound known as their "songs" stuck in my head, I'm coming after you :

*I left my keys here somewhere*.....

Ron

I'll be listening to what's known as Actual Music most of the rest of the day, so you should be safe :P

*wipes forehead* "Whew"

Ron

OK,
Now that I have my camera issue sorted I can get back to posting pictures... this is a recent Academy, and this customer wanted a wooden handle. I just happened to have one from Roy that I hadn't picked a project for yet:



It was red and black and I believe that was a goncalo alves handle.


and here is one I recently sent to Mario, another Academy in Coyote Tan with brown knots and a dark brown fall. I don't usually offer the collars on the Academies, but I did as a favor to Mario on this one:

Shoot... still getting used to imgur. Let me try that again:

hopefully, 3rd times a charm:

Ah, victory is mine! And here is Mario's Academy:

Excellent job Tyler.
Very nice looking "smart" cow whip.
That collar looks really cool.

Ron

So clean and lovely, really like the colours on the second

Both of them are really beautiful work, Tyler! That wood Academy is sharp!

Thank you Ron, Charlie, and Rachel! I may have some more photos I can salvage from the last few months around here...

Unique work as always!

I make sure I use the "preview" feature on the forum very obsessively especially when posting pictures!

Erik I do that too, to make sure that the photo's link works.

Ron

Heh....Erik, if we were discussing this in person, I would be desperatley trying to keep my face from betraying the fact that I had no idea that was possible until just now

Very elegant, Tyler!

Thank you Robert!
Here is a 7 foot bullwhip, 13 inch handle that is going to Australia tomorrow:

Very nice, I love the knotwork and the grapevine, the little pattern accents look really good
