Hey there!
I am brand new to the forum, as I joined yesterday. I have been interested in making a whip for a few weeks now, and have finally got around to collecting most of my supplies. Just today I put together a shotbag and wrapped a leather bolster over it. I wanted to cut my own laces, but as of right now I am solely relying on leather scraps my housemate generously donated to me, and it's hard to get big enough scraps for cutting laces.
So, my question: I found precuts laces on Tandy Leather and am tempted to buy them instead. But I don't know enough about leather quality and type to tell if this is strong enough or durable enough for whip braiding. Any opinions? Has anyone used this particular lace for whip braiding?
Thanks in advance for any advice you can lend!
Cheers,
nell
