From falls & poppers to plaiting & cracking technique, this section is dedicated in memory of Sergei, IndyGear Staff Member and Whip Guru. Always remember to keep "Celebratin' Life!"
A few people have asked me if I would build whip holders, so here is my second attempt at it:
The basic design comes from Ben Scott. The black patch is rubber glued and sewn into the inner part of the holder to help hold the whip and to cover the backing of the male snap. I made the first one without a cover on the back of the snap and while testing the holder for slippage the backing scuffed the whip. The bead on the cinch string is black horn.
Now anyone looking at getting an IOAB whip can get a whip holder at the same time. I'm thinking of the regular price being $20, and $15 if ordered with a whip.
Looks good, Adam. Looks like Ben should of copyrighted his design! Who's up next?
One of my early concerns was the snap scuffing the whip, so it's funny you mention that. I remember when I very first was ordering one from Ben, I mentioned this to him and he said it wasn't an issue. He uses a really good snap that is extremely flush with the leather, and he was right, I've never had an issue with it, even when I cinch that baby up super tight!
Who's up next?
