My Latest Effort

Post by willthebold »

Hey All,
This is my latest effort. It's a 6ft, 12-plait. It's the 6th whip I've done, and I think it's my best yet. Since I have yet to actually crack a whip made by someone who knows what they're doing, I'm sort of guessing on things like how tight to plait everything. I've done it super tight, but I think this one cracks a little easier since I pulled a little easier, and made sure to keep things as straight as possible. A big thanks to everyone who's posted with whip-making instructions!

-Will

Looks good, I think you did a very well. I like the contrast in colors.
