Hi guys,
Here is a 12 ft 16 plait nylon Indy in chocolate brown,





Hope you like,
Graeme

I like! Gotta get me something like that for the wet months ahead!

Very nice!!

Don't see too many 12 footers.
Did you extend the binding out on that one?

Thanks for the compliments guys Just normal binding in this one. I always make the nylon whips very stiff.

That's a very nice whip! Great job!

Thanks Noah

Very nice!!

That thing is PERFECT! I swear it looks like it's actually made of chocolate! Whoever gets this one is a very lucky person!

Wow!!! That's a really beautiful whip! I wish I could make a whip that beautiful... I can't even perfect a turk's head knot.

That is the most awesome nylon whip I have ever seen! Great job!

Like I said, Your nylon plaiting kung fu is good!!! Have you ever done a Zorro whip with the conchos, and all?

I can kinda do it, but nowhere as nice as most of you can. I also have a problem with keeping it on the whip... Hahaha! For some reason, it won't stay on the butt.

What do you use for turkshead base?

BTW, great whip Graeme! I'm looking forward to see more of your beauties!

Before I just used electrical tape. I'm toying with the idea of using some epoxy putty (the same one I used to sculpt my staff of ra headpiece) as the base and shaping it into a nice round shape.

I used that on my 3.5' whip, but as the butt itself, no turks head knot... painted it a mahogany color to match the dark brown color of the whip. It actually looks like wood when I was done.

I've never thought about doing one but will surely give it a go when I have some time

Thanks again for the great comments everyone

Graeme

If you ever get a chance to make one, I'll be looking forward to it!

Even not knowing a whole lot about whips, you can tell thats a beauty just by looking at it.

Man, you really plaite that nylon TIGHT!
You've got hands of steel my friend.

Keep them pictures coming Graeme!
I missed your "latest whip" posts when you were gone.

Good to see you're back.
