I may be willing, but I would have to know more exactly what you are wanting. The problem with a good kit is that it is pretty costly. Braiding is the easier part of the process.

Blake Bruning

Glad to hear it, you should put a post up on my Facebook group The Whip Community there should be some others in the area that might be found on it. The whole purpose for that group is for whip crackers and enthusiastic to find other whip crackers and enthusiasts and their area to arrange meet ups a...

If you want me to make a whip directly email me trinitywhipco@yahoo.com. I have a special right now for any 8' Indy Style to sell for $525. Or call/ text me at (317)407-0153. Or PM me.

Blake Bruning

Lol...wasn't trying to be mysterious. I don't know who has the contract if anybody yet. But I have some ideas I will keep just in case I am contacted. You think by now Indy being a world traveler would have picked up I whip somewhere else and not just have a natural style Indy. Things change. He use...

Blake Bruning

Well, I have some ideas that are out there, but I will keep most to myself. Lets just say we are trying to keep it "Indy Style" still...what I would propose at the bare minimum is his whip should be black or brandy. Let's say his whip is heavily used and a decade or so old still. It would ...

Blake Bruning

The problem with low end/quality whips is that they are constructed poorly. While one can learn to crack them, they will cause all sorts of bad habbits. I good guilty whips should be weighted well and once directed it should roll out effortlessly in the direction it is guided. Everyone I see a video...

Blake Bruning

It was made in Spring 2012.

Blake Bruning

I am hoping for a change up myself. I love an 8" spike, but would really like a new look. I would go with Brandy and black 2-tone. It is a change up, but at a distance would just look like a well used darkened whip for those of you who can't bare much change.

Blake Bruning

I agree!

Blake Bruning

If you want a great deal on a cowhide whip from eBay find a guy named Arturo6060.. or something like that. He makes a good whip for around that price. I would go to pureehips.com and by a whip from Gus if you just want to spend a couple hundred dollars on a functioning whip.

Blake Bruning

I believe someone video taking one of those apart before and posted it somewhere once... Tissue paper on the inside among other things.

Blake Bruning

The other problem with this guy is that the picture it isn't what's ever sent. He has a picture that he makes his stock photo but it's not what you get.

Blake Bruning

Yes!!! Unless you are just wanting to buy a costume piece.

Blake Bruning

I want to know what kind of neighbors know you are gone, know there was a garage sale that was obviously not tou, and didn't do anything about it?

Blake Bruning

My money is on Del Carpio...

Blake Bruning

I have had both....I prefer Todd's....but then again the one I had was when he still made kangaroo.

Blake Bruning

So, what whips are you planing on buying this year? Or what whips did you just purchase? I got quite a list already...I am getting a couple matched sets of nylon Stock whips from Adam Winrich, a couple sets of wippa lace stockwhips from Simon Martin, a matched ser of Kangaroo Stockwhips from Bernie ...

Blake Bruning

Murphy retired in 2013 if I remeber right. He is now making archery bows

Blake Bruning

It is unfortunate but he's made thousands of whips. Also I believe there is still several at Western stage props that can be attained so grab them while you can.

Blake Bruning

I don't know what they plan on using in the new Indiana Jones Movie, but I was wondering what I would want it to be. I am still on the fence, but I think I would love a change up in the color scheme. So, I ask you all...what would you like to see as the new Indy whip?

Blake Bruning

Maybe I should title this...what Strain whip do you regret passing along the most...lol

Blake Bruning

That was a great whip! I regret passing it along as well. Basically every whip but two of them that I regret selling again are Strain Whips.

Blake Bruning

I thought this might be a bitter/sweet topic.

My biggest regret is an 8' 12 Plait Joe Strain Raiders. It was the first kangaroo I bought and the first of many from h. I needed finances bad and still regret it years later.

Blake Bruning

I am suprised no one answered so here is my 2 cents. Are you looking into possibly getting into two handed routines or just wanting the one? If it is teo...definately go for a matched set of stock whips. For Nylon over roo...more of a budget issue or preference. Generally roo is heavier and that can...

Blake Bruning

I have nylon and kangaroo stock whips and bullwhips. Stock whips both nylon and leather are nice to have, but I think if you go bullwhip...got to be a kangaroo!

Blake Bruning

You can't go wrong with any of the before mentioned whip makers. Used or new...especially when looking at a 8'-10'. Bullwhips are unique from stock whips because they can and will imprint with the whip crackers preference. I feel it is even more so on the shorter whips. Everytime I let my nephew or ...

Blake Bruning

Jeremiah is one Cow Member I know of that lives in FL. he has a Casey Tyler, a Joe Strain, He has one of mine. He has owned a Jakka. It would be good to visit him and try what he has...that is if he is willing. He is a great guy. Very Kind. Very Friendly.

Blake Bruning

You could try out some whip lengths by asking around. Set up a post asking if there is a cow member in your area and if you could visit to inspect some whips. Or if you have $40 to spend, go to youtube and look for Adam Winrich's videos for how to make a whip. He has a way to go to your local hardwa...

Blake Bruning

My website is about to get published...but here is a F.A.Q. I will have posted... Can I swing from your whips? The whip used in Raiders had a steel cable core and the cable was securely attached to an enforced beam. If you were to take one of our whips...or one of the whips by any top quality whip m...

Blake Bruning

While any whipmaker if they are professional like dovewhips, midwestwhips, trinitywhipco, northernwhipco...wont make whips for you to swing from. For safety reason they do make these whips for stunt crews with special care and testing. Before these whips are even shipped, they are put thru a long se...

Blake Bruning

Casey is from Wyoming on the border...but lives in CA wwherehis wife is stationed currently. He lives about an hour or so from L.A. iI believe.

Blake Bruning

Paul may be too busy...but a great choice! Dove whips is close as well. Dovewhips.com. Casey Tyler can be available to do it fast.

Blake Bruning

It depends on what you want to do with a whip. Nylon has its place, but I love leather. If you want a Raiders style...got to buy a kangaroo whip!

Blake Bruning

Thanks Jeremiah. I will have a website up within the month. Trinitywhipco.com

Blake Bruning

I believe he did use fiberglass rods. I am not sure what he does now...but I would use the spike.Unless you plan in binding the tranny like crazy to replicate hos work, then I wouldn't bother trying to copy the handle foundation. You should email him...in my expiriences he always responds and a usua...

Blake Bruning

Oh yeah...pribably better off facebooking the whip makers hook. Prople there could help you locate what you need.

Blake Bruning

Several people use fiberglass...but tohiti cane is prederwd...you could even get some rattan. 1/2 plair would be the way to go...that way you dont have to taper the sticks or split lay a metal core in it. The only problem with fiberglass is it will...could...eventually shatter

Blake Bruning

Dont buy it if you expect it to work. Costume for kid...fine. That looks like one of Jrzjoe's many alias. Nothing but tissue paper in the middle. If you were going to start playing a quitar...you need a low end prices...high end quality quitar...the same applues to whips. Can't afford $300-$500 kang...

Blake Bruning

Side arm flick..hitting face? Is this single crack or in combination? If single crack then you are bringing it back and around to far...my guess.

Blake Bruning

Contact Casey Tyler at dovewhips .con or dovewhips@yahoo.com. Best Nylon whipmaker evr.

Blake Bruning

Did you buy this 8' from the instock page about a month ago? Was it on the very top?

Blake Bruning

you need to buy Ron Edwards books. I forget the name off hand but something like "whips and whip braiding"

Blake Bruning

Blake Bruning

Actually....the strength of a higher plait count is stronger then a lower plait count. If it is a strong 3mm(not a damaged strand)....you could pull your hardest and it wont break champ. The smaller strand will place a stronger force on the binding then a wider lace. The pressure is stronger due to ...

Blake Bruning

Delet...double post...

Blake Bruning

So...how did the best B-day in the world go?

Blake Bruning

Buy a Todd's. It is crackable...but it is more for costume. And it is light on the bank account. I have owned one before. You could argue that it is to light and mearly a costume piece. It is also sometimes.....better to ask forgiveness then permission. Tie the whipholder farther befind you and have...

Blake Bruning

The problem with an 8 strand overlay is that it will mess up a good and natural formula. Most people who make an 8 strand tend to taper the whole length. 12 strands should have all the taper end at the 1/2 way.point which should be the 1st drop. In theory...it would save some time cutting strands an...

Blake Bruning

You know...UV rays breakdown the leather...thus weakening it and decrrasing life span.

Blake Bruning

Nope...There are some Joe Strain, David Morgan, Casey Tyler, Blake Bruning....and there is a J.M. whip
