Wow thats a great job!. Its a shame the seller didnt describe it clearly i he auction in the first place though. I was the 2nd highest bidder on this and the seller sent me some detailed photos. Not one of them showed damage to the whip.

Managed to crack this a few times today. It cracks really well and very loud, even for a novice like myself

. Still, i have loads of practise to do before i cn get it to crack at its full potential

I honestly cant thank you enough for making the whip :TOH: I was pretty much stuck on where to go when looking for a whip as all the main vedors had long waiting lists and i wasnt prepared to wait months and months. Riku offered me a very good deal and a very small wait time and as you can all see h...

That exciting moment when you know your whip is in the post and on its way

morethanatimelord

I love the rich colour and the slight taper in the handle

Ive gone for an 8ft. Since ive never used a real whip before i thought an 8ft would be a good place to start

morethanatimelord

Riku is currently working on this whip for me. This will be my first roo hide whip or indeed real bullwhip i have ever owned, so im really looking forward to it. Pictures to follow later

morethanatimelord

May i also suggest contacting anyone of the very talanted whip experts/makers from this forum. They can advise you on anything you need to know

morethanatimelord

I was told a little more about the whip. Apparently its about 4 years old,was bought with other whips from a collector and had been used over the years but well looked after

The seller was also very kind to send me some detailed close up photos. Its a great looked whip

morethanatimelord

Ha! You're the person that won that auction. morethanatimelord was the other one wanting to get ahold of it. Nice whips :D Yes, id been winning that whip on ebay for a whole week. The auction ended at 5.30 am here in the UK and i didnt wake up intime to rebid...Gutted i missed out as i was prepared...

morethanatimelord

That looks great, the colour is very nice.

morethanatimelord

Still intersted in seeing any photos of these whips from people who actually own them

morethanatimelord

Im still interested to see how these things would perform or look

. Id never buy one

but i would like to see one

I do live the Streets of Cairo whip though

morethanatimelord

Im not a fan of the light colour of a 'new' natural tan. Imich prefer when the whip has darkened as it gives it a bit of character.

morethanatimelord

Brilliant work!

Wow and your hands are bruised arent they

morethanatimelord

Wonderful whip! the colour is great!

Congrats! We'll see pics right? Most definitely! In fact, my wife and I have hired a photographer for taking some couple's pregnancy pictures for us (we're expecting in about a month and a half!), and while we're out there anyway, we're going to get some "Nebraska Schulte Gear" photos. Ho...

morethanatimelord

Ive just emailed one person about one of those whips

morethanatimelord

What's even more sad is that most people can't distinguish the few good whips that are on ebay from all the cheap @#$% that's there, so they just think they are overpriced. I've sold one whip on ebay, and I had to lower the price about 20% before anybody even considered it. I've tried to sell anoth...

morethanatimelord

Thanks guys. Yes, i was interested to find out which jacket it was myself once asked so i did a quick search and the label inside does indeed match the Hero jacket

I have no idea what kind of jackets Wings sell to be honest as this is the first ive had

This was given to me by a friend who weathered it himself and did a very good job i may add!

Pic of the back

I'll take some now

Im not really sure which Wings jacket it is as it was given to me. The label is black and simply says US Wings

morethanatimelord

Looks darn good on you!!! :clap: HIGH regards! Michaelson Thank you sir :TOH: Bit of fun with this one. I was hoping to find Dr Henry Jones Snr in a quiet corner but it wasnt to be. (see plaque to the left of me on the wall) http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/3875/indytonydurham003.jpg" onclic...

morethanatimelord

Very kindly recieved this jacket from a friend recently, fits perfectly, very pleased indeed. Never owned a US wings jacket before so i was quite pleased that its a little lighter to wear than my old Gibson & Barnes http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/3706/indytonydurham002.jpg Shot at 2012-02-27

morethanatimelord

Yes im waiting for th 10fts to come back in stock too. Todd said in a couple of weeks.

morethanatimelord

Thanks Michael! Does anyone have a colour picture comparison at all? I think on Todds site it looks like it could be the tan? Indy's whip is perhaps darker so I can only assumer perhaps a little closer to mahog? Do you own a Todd's Michael or the real David Morgan deal? :whip: Theres a nice picture...

morethanatimelord

Contacted Wested the other day asking for more info on their whips. I asked if they could be used or were they just for costume purposes. I recieved a reply quite quickly basically saying that they have sold loads of whips to customers who have used them. That was about it really.

morethanatimelord

Hi all! I've been away for ages and now I'm back! :CR: Has anyone bought a Wested whip yet? Are they any good? :whip: I've been off Indy Gear buying since I bought my KOTCS Fedora from Mr Delk and Wested shirt. But looking to buy a Wested jacket in the next few weeks and possibly the whip to go wit...

morethanatimelord

Looks gorgeous!!!

morethanatimelord

Yes, he claims that dark tan and black are the most popular colours so they stuck with those. I find that hard to believe, certainly with Indy fans as id assuming most would go for natural tan?

morethanatimelord

Naturally, you would want to display your very best work on your website, right? Well if that is their very best, ( other than wojcicki's :lol: ) then I dread seeing what their usual stuff is :twisted: I think though the point has been made, that they are not great whips, despite what "Gary&qu...

I might try to now just to see what their actual whips look like.

I must admit, iam very curious to see one of their whips to see if they match thevpics on their site

morethanatimelord

IndianaBravo wrote:They have an ebay outlet as well, just like Todds costumes. Apparently the money back thing does not apply.

Are they still activly selling? what is their ebay name?, i did a quick search for them using 'outdoorhobbies' and 'whiplashwhips' but nothing came up

The whip was purchased through an ebay site that offered no returns. He found the plaiting to be sloppy and the whip darker than pictured.

So the whip wasnt bought directly from Whiplash' website?
