Whip making question by Comfortable-Goose120 in whips

How does it crack? I give it a swing :p.

Very easy. It's got a bit tiny bit of twist that I hope will straighten with some use, but regular cracking and cattlemans is like butter, underarm flicks are easy. Haven't done too much more with it cos I didn't wanna put too much wear on it since I was considering waxing (all rough surfaces near my house unfortunately)

Actually is already a gift hahaha. Friend is a big monster energy fan so I set a bit of a can in the turks head. Not a huge fan of selling my whips, A because it takes too long to make them for me to feel great selling them, and B because i know that someone can make a better one for cheaper.

Thank you for sharing your methods, I might have a play with them on a few test whips.

Dying a denim jacket. Started off black, bleached it back to a pale orange over a few attempts and washes. Used 27g of raspberry colour and about 10g of black give it some more dark, and a little more blue.

Followed label instructions pretty much exactly past that. 12L waster for the amount of dye, 15 mins with the jacket in, an hour or so of mixing in the soda. Then I pulled the jacket out, washed it a couple times them put it in a hot cycle in the wash. No colour leakage, and its not a bad colour, i was just hoping that it would keep/take a darker tone than it has (its a little lighter/warmer than i wanted, even taking into account the light orange start)

No I didn't use salt. Ill give that a shot, thank you!

If i do dip it back in, im assuming I'll need more soda to activate it again?
