What Happened to Crease N Corral?
Hi everyone! I haven't been in the Indy cosplay scene for a while and have recently decided to get back in. However, during my whip research I've noticed that Crease N Corral no longer has a website. Does anyone know what happened? They made some awesome whips back in the day. I wish I pulled the trigger on one before they stopped making them.

Dusty just stopped making whips. You have to order elsewhere

I think he got affected by a lot of natural disasters and decided to move his life in another direction.

Yep, I recall his wait time went from a few months to a year and then with everything else that happened he just moved on. I haven't seen Dusty on anything for some time. He had great quality whips for a portion of the big name prices and I loved the one I used to have (regretting selling it).
I was lucky to snag one of his last cowboy straw Indy hats though.

I discovered Dusty's site in 2017, but at the time I wcould in no way afford one of his whips. I put it off, until he no longer made them...
However, seeing his gorgeous whip, gave me a huge boost in 2017, that started (or maybe restarted, as I had tried earlier in life) my whip-making journey. Made some paracord whips, some cowhide ones and finally roo-hide ones, that I am now pretty happy with.
Dusty's stuff was definitely unique, the aesthetic of his whip builds was definitely something else. Works of art...

Re: What Happened to Crease N Corral?
Very true! His streets of Cairo whip looked amazing. Apparently he had a really unique weathering method. Also, all of his whips were built around a stainless steel cable, which apparently gave them a certain "springiness". I'd love to talk to him one day about his process.bearbeast wrote: ↑Thu Oct 20, 2022 12:43 am I discovered Dusty's site in 2017, but at the time I wcould in no way afford one of his whips.

Dusty's user name here is parttime, but he hasn't visited COW since 2016.
