bullwhips Report post Posted April 21, 2010 Here's a bullwhip that I finished yesterday. The handle is stingray. It's got a 20 plait lash that ends in a 10 plait point. It was a fun project to do! Louie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bullwhips Report post Posted April 21, 2010 Did they have bullwhips or signal whips that I made? Just curious. The sting ray bullwhip is a bit to "flashy" for my personal taste in what I'd use...but I still think it looks cool! I could pictures some sort of circus ringmaster in a movie using it.

bullwhips Report post Posted April 22, 2010 8thsinner, The lace I use is hand cut by me, I cut it with a box cutter. I don't use precut store bought lace because you don't know where from the hide it was cut from and I don't want any shrinkage when I plait them. The lace in this bullwhip started at 3mm and tapered down to 2mm at just shy of the 4 foot mark where I started my strand drops. Louie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
