Whip Basics. The Forum

Mr. Robert, Ron , Matt, Brandon, thank you

Bright and colorful yes, it was a lot of fun to plait. No trouble seeing where I was going like on a camo or solid black
The more I looked at the colors the more I liked them, and they sound in the air

Roy & Ron thank you, yessir it was to me! I appreciate it.

Thank you Brandon, I hope to be sending several more that way over the years...


Roger Thank you, it's my larger TT core design with a 10 plait belly and 14 plait overlay. I know this design does very well for a single belly at 10', and would likely be quite fine though a little light at 12', but a regular TT core and 12 plait single belly I would probably not want to make longer than 8'.

Interesting. My 11' bull has a standard 4/3/2 TT core, a long 8 plt 1st belly and even longer 12-plt second. No idea if it's worked as I haven't cracked the damn thing yet. Still needs a fall, cracker and knots.

Nice whip Rachel

Roger no reason it shouldn't, it sure looks the part!

Thank you, Morten!

The transfer of energy in your whips is very, very good. The taper, the twisted fall and right into the tapered cracker. A wonderful smooth and consistent wave of cinetic energy that runs through unbraked into a clear and sharp crack. It's a joy to see your work.

Robby

wow
Robby,
Thank you very, very much, my dear friend.

Awesome whip Rachel, and congrats on the order from the land of roohide:)

Thank you very much, Tyler!

Miss Rachel that whip is Kicking like Van Damme. The handle, the colors, the pattern, the taper it is all right on time. It just looks Awesome. Great work.

Thank you, Mr. Johnny

"no fully loaded Bull"!! LOL! Oh my goodness, that made me spit tea on the computer!

Beautiful whips as always!

I banded my share growing up

Thank you very much, Miss Bobbi!

Congrats on a sale! That's a really nice looking whip to me, the colors play together really well to my eye : )

Thank you, Erik! Good to see you!

Stockwhips, 21" handcut ash handles, 40" 12 plait thong, 6' 12 plait thong in chocolate brown with salmon accents.
I am glad to be finished with these!!!

Those look super Rachel.
Nice job.

Ron

Dannngggg that's pretty! I've never dealt with wood as a handle before, how heavy do those feel?

Thank you, Ron!

Brandon, Thanks, not very heavy (not like a steel handle).
The 6' is 13 oz. and the 40" is 11 oz.

Oh wow that's pretty light!
Very nice job~

They are too cool. I like the shorter one the most there is something about it that jumps out at me. Awesome job. I take it that you have made stock whips in the past?
