Outstanding work Rachel.

Ben

Thank you, Ben.

Here is the overlay complete on a 5’ Rachel Stock. It has finishing touches to be done, but it is near!

Rachel, I hate to tell you this, but there's a mistake in the first two inches of the handle part.





(made you look . Gotcha)

Beautiful.

RON
Yes, you got me GOOD :p
Thanks!

Beautiful work, Rachel.

Thank you, Mark!!!

Rachel, this is splendid!

Ron, you're being cruel! :P

Rachel, I am impressed by your craftmanship and attention to detail. I love being part of your projects from the sideline, by watching your pictures, thanks!

Ron, that was so mean, you scared me as well. Haha!

Rachel, I love the combiantions of those patterns, lovely work!

Ben

Thank y’all, very much. Now to finish the matching ones and finally hear them crack! The best!

All your "boys" at the same time ?

Flemming, that’s an excellent idea! I bet they would certainly do that!

And two of three. Waxed, now for details. A little plaiting left on 3 which is Amper Style Elite.


Now, off to dark work for 24 hours, then back to plaiting after I get home Sunday morning and a nap.

Rachel, looks like they're just begging to be cracked.

Ron

Thank you, Ron! I hear them whispering, “Hurry up, already!”

Rachel, this trio is going to be fabulous!

Rachel, I love how the patterns on both thongs are matched. It is always very, very inspiering to see your work!

Ben

I am always so impressed with the pattern and that it is completely flawless, but Racel.. what is the white between the threads on the thong all the way to the right. You don't usually wax your whips or?

Flemming, Rachel must of course reply to this, but I'm pretty sure she does wax her whips....

Yes sir Flemming, it is wax. It was a little cooler outside and the wax solidified before fully dripping off. It will be warmed with a hair dryer before I finish the whip, and will not be seen. It is paraffin, with beeswax and coconut oil added.

Yes, Mr. Robert is correct. If it is not leather, it is waxed.
