I believe the member of the board whose had the most success is Kyle, "The_Edge". He's an artist in more ways than one.

Add my kudos for the Kyle man! His custom print is the first thing I see when I come out of my bedroom. Folks still 'oo and ah' over that print. His whips are absolutely first rate, and his braided watch fobs are absolutely perfect too. Yep, he's got it all down pat. Regards. Michaelson

Michaelson... as long as David Morgan stays out of the bedroom! :wink: Although, now that I think about it, his creations could make for some fun behind closed doors. :shock: Did I say that?! OK, children this post is PG-13, nothing to see here, move along... move along.

To get this derailment back on topic, Paul Stenhouse is another whip maker whom I've dealt with... though not for a whip, but for his instructional video. And if his leather skills are anything like his tutorial skills, I'd think he's one of the better ones.

I picked it up as a way to afford to buy a whip and it got out of control. I've done about 14 now (bullwhips and stockwhips) and I'm still realizing how much I don't know. Very fun, very challenging. I'm currently working on a two tone stock whip. I'm also working on buying a camera, so I can post some pics.

Well, I'm new to this site but I am a whipmaker and here's my site:
www.totally-whipped.com

It's still very simple and I hope to have more pages and pics soon, but it should give an idea of what I do...

I am enjoying being a part of the forum! :D
