My newest mini-whip - for when you need 'a little crack'
Posted: Fri Feb 01, 2019 3:34 am
I have been wanting to make this one for a while, ever since seeing a 1/4 scale Indy bullwhip on Reddit.
It is 75 cm (30 inches) long. The overlay is 12 strands, each around 2 mm wide and 0.8 mm thick.
It features a spring steel handle and cowhide heel knot foundation, otherwise it is all roo-hide. Including the fall.
Even though it is small and light, it cracks quite nicely. It is very satisfying.
If you're curious for a closer look, you can see high-resolution pictures here:
