Whip Basics. The Forum

Jyri, I really like this whip - you should be proud of it.

Wow Jyri, that's amazing. You've come so far in so little time.
If it cracks the way it looks, you've got a winner.
I congratulate you sir.

Whip number 19, 4ft 3 belly snakewhip with 14plat overlay and english eye.
Just a quick build for customer.

Jyri, nice job.
I like the heel knot treatment.

Jyri, that's really very stylish! Well done - especially if it was a quick build!

Thank you!

Jyri, I very much like the orange bit you placed just above the heel knot. Good idea!

Live this whip, Jyri. Your work is really outstanding.

Thank you!
Whip number 20, 9ft bullwhip with 18plat overlay and brass concho.


I'm still not completely happy with the finish of the concho as it is satin finish and you still see a lot of scraches but i'll try to get rid of them before the dog shelter raffle.

Jyri, that looks splendid!

It looks awesome, how long do you make whips?

That looks great, Jyri!

Thank you!
I have been making whips for few years. This is the 20th whip this far. When i got in the forum my phase in whip making has gone up quite a bit.

Jyri, once you have it polished back out to where you want it, you could put a coat of urethane on it. It would stop it from oxidizing.

I have to ask if my friend has it but you are right, there has to be something protecting it. Thanks! After nightshift it was all dark already even from only sweat from my hands

That concho really is good, Jyri. Hope you find something to protect it.

Jyri, your damn conchos are so beautiful! :O

Thank you very much!

It is a beautyfull whip Jyri, that everybody would love to will. The concho is amazing

Thanks! If you want it, remember to buy tickets
