Probably the easiest costume piece to make so I made one!
Bullwhip holder for the holster belt.
Holster is next and the last piece I need is some sort of Webley pistol! Hmm where can I get one?

Did it cost you less than $20 to make? I'm in the market for a bullwhip and would like a holder but Todd's price on that item is a bit steep in my opinion. How'd you do that?

I just had a new whip carrier made, too. I took my Lee Keppler Raiders carrier to a shoe repair shop and asked them to copy it in a dark brown leather, to match my jacket. It only cost me $6. Here's what he came up with:

Does it really have grooves or not? I have looked at so many images from the movie and most of them do not show any type of line going through the whip keeper. I may need to dig up my DVDs and do some screengrabs.
I have seen some vendors selling them without and some with. Keep in mind this was made under 1 1/2 hours (not counting the overnight drying of the leather stain) so it this is merely a prototype. As soon as I can get better images form the movie I will try to make the more screen accurate which means I may need to get more leather tooling tools!

i am thinking about making my own whip holder too.
But i am still looking for the right measurements of the leather strap used?
Does anyone have an idea?
It doesnt look too complicated, but still i have to see if i can pull that of LOL
