Sweet Whip!!!! My obsession with whips started with Indiana Jones, I would not have looked at that thing twice 6 months ago. But, and I guess this is just how this thing goes, it has spilled over into a real appreciation of all whips. I've had a little itch for two or three "non-Indy" whips here lately. Nice Job :wink:

Good to see your experimenting, there's a lot more to whip making than Indy whips....keep it up!
