Just finished a whip :D

Post by riku1914 »

Made out of the vinyl i've used before ( this is the last time i'm using it. ) It's a 24 plait overlay, about 5' 8" long, with a 8.5" handle.

The core is shot loaded ( because the vinyl was just too light before ). Oh and also it has a 10 strand point.

Here, as you can see is a quick shot of the entire whip, you can't see it very well in the pic, but it's two colors, black and a dark,

glossy brown.

I've been contemplating making a whip out of nylon with pleather overlay so it will look more like leather. Haven't gotten around to it, though.

Yeah this is vinyl with a nylon core, I don't like it but it's cheap and i've been able to learn to plait with it and nylon.

edit: by nylon core, i mean the vinyl has nylon in it's core, not the whip with nylon core.
