Plaiting a bullwhip...

Post by Indy1024 »

My old whip is unraveling at the end, and I can't figure out how to plait it to fix it. :(
And also, I just want to know how to plait without purchasing anything (e)book-wise. Maybe a website or YouTube video?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Well Bernie has some clips on youtube about tying on a fall so if you undo a bit of the plaiting at the tip of your whip, this will effectively bring you to the same point as if you had just finished plaiting the entire whip and only had the fall to tie on. Bernie's website is: http://www.em-brand-whips.com/

I'm sure you can find your way to his video from there.
