Me too, Ron, except I'll probably never grow up. Lovely work, Rachel.

Mark, I don't think anybody who's really alive ever quite grows up. Living is becoming. Those who stop growing, wither....

What I like best about your whips - apart from the amazing craftsmanship - is your twisted core. I have no idea how it works in a roo-whip, but in your nylon whips it gives an absolutely amazing life and response. One day I hope to have the opportunity to try a lightweight roo-whip you have built with twisted core.

Mark, thank you!
Thank you, Ben l!
Flemming, thank you, I plan on working this design more, both for a heavier and lighter whip. I like the Twisted Taper core, and it has been done in buckskin down in Florida for so long and seems to work well, I think it is something to hang on to in design.
Thank you, Ben l!

I’m building two Amper Styles right now, which are nearing completion. While working on those, I sometimes get to take this one to work and tweak it a little or change it.
It is the kangaroo hide stockwhip shown above, lighter single belly with a Twisted Taper core and single bolster.
Still a little work I’d like to do on the fall hitch and adding knots.

Ben, thank you very much
It still needs a lot of little things tweaked but I believe it is close.
