Hi guys,
this piece of gear is primarily the result of months of hard work and research by my friend and whipmaker lelec2. Months ago, talking about it, the idea arose to create a whip young Indy is the most 'accurate as possible to archive images, and especially adding the technique of aging, a work that hard - at least as far as I know - you see around.
The idea was so compelling that lele started working hard on this whip, especially studying the model on display at the Valencia exhibit.
What to say? Here are some pics to give you an idea of lashing has been made. My compliments to lele for the creation, and passion too.
Enjoy!

Very cool, Lelec! And congratulations, Steerpike! I love it! A great project, and it looks perfect!
Oh, and what is the length? I'm going to guess 6 feet long?
