Whip Basics. The Forum

Fantastic! I love the camo and black thong; and that eye is just too good!

That Eye!!! Too cool!
Is the gator still named rainbow unicorn?

Thank you very much Mr Robert and Bobbi, and yes that is still the legendary Rainbow Unicorn.

Pretty sweet Roy! The long is very gator like, I dig it.

Wonderful work Roy, that looks really nice. Your lignum is on the lighter side, do you warm it up when turning?

Very slick, in a menacing kind of way.
That eye gives the gator look a nice touch..
Beautiful piece of wood for the handle too.

Wow Roy,
what a fantastic Whip! I like the eye in the bottom

I've been tempted to use camo but have shied away from it to date. After seeing that Gator I'm going to have to have another look. Really nice!

Thank y'all for the kind words I really appreciate the support. Devin the only time I heat the wood is when I apply the beeswax. I use a heat gun to melt it.

It is very well made, no doubt. But it looks scary to me. Brrr... There was one thing, jumping around in my head. I was thinking that this handle reminds me on something. Then it made "click". "The Lord of the Rings". Sauron! The single eye, surrounded with fire. The evildoer. I may be the Nerd, now, but it was worth that!

Serious - Really great craftsmanship. But if I had to choose between this one ond the pink whip you made for your daughter, I'd take the pink one. This one really scares me a bit...

But thanks for sharing your work, Roy. That it's not for me doesn't mean that I think it's not good. It's more than well made. As your other whips are. But that eye...


Robby

Sauron's Eye! Of Course! Now I know why it's so (deliciously) scary!

Hahaha thanks Robby, my Pink Princess had the same opinion as you. She said that scary eye was looking at her. She wouldn't get near it and is now happy that its out of our house.

That eye is a bit creepy, but the whole whip itself is really cool. Gatory

What a beauty whip Roy!!!! The alligator eye add a strong style and personality!
I like so much the color that you have reached!!!
Again great whip!!!

Howdy Roy, It's great to see a new face (to me) producing such beautiful work. Love the way you incorporate pyrography into your creations. I'm really a fan of those "earthy" tones of your thongs and the way they look like an antique after waxing. Thanks for sharing ~Guy~

Pokkis, Gio, and Guy thanks so much for the compliments. Guy I like a good rustic look even when an item is brand new so I try to incorporate some of that into my work.

Hey Roy. I just noticed your registration date.... Happy Anniversary!!

Hey thanks Guy as I hadn't noticed that. I can't believe a year has flown by. It's been a great year spent with the WB crew. I've made some wonderful new friends who I hope to shake hands with some day.

Wow! Your whips are amazing...

Everyone's work on here is incredible but your choice of colours and design grab me.

This is what I have in mind when I think of making a whip, I just hope to make one 1/100 as beautiful as yours!

Donovan, I got one of Roy's whips a while ago - and I can assure you that it performs even better than it looks! It's a dream!
