Members Bevan Posted December 4, 2009 Members Report Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) Here's a few pics of a Bull whip and a stock whip that I made with the help of a tutorial DVD I obtained from a master whip maker in Tassie. For more of my work go to www.bwrwhips.com, have a look. Edited December 4, 2009 by Bevan Quote

Those are for people who's work is marginal and you don't want to hurt their feelings. Your work on the other hand is bloody marvelous.

Contributing Member barra Posted December 4, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted December 4, 2009 G'day Bevan, welcome aboard from a fellow crow eater. I'll be passing thru Renmark in a few weeks on my way to Wagga via the dreaded Hay plains. I think the call of the Renmark hotel might be too great. Again welcome to LW Barra Quote "If You're not behind the Troops, please feel free to stand in front of them"

Members Bevan Posted December 7, 2009 Author Members Report Posted December 7, 2009 Beautiful work. How long does it take to do one? Do you cut your own leather for them? Gday Grumpy thanks for the kind coments, i cut my own set of strings with the lace cutter i made , then i put it thru a resizer and beveler i also made , if all goes well it might take me about 11hrs or so to make a stock whip , but the bullwhip is much more , i am not sure , i have a few sleeps in between!!i am a metal worker during the day leather worker only at night !! If you want to have a look at the leather tool i make go to my website www.bwrwhips.com and have a look around Cheers Bevan Quote
