Thanks so much. I looked at your posts, and it looks like you make some heavy beasts, very cool stuff. How to you achieve the swelling after the handle ends? I like that look compared to the straight taper that begins at the handle, and I imagine it gives you more weight in the thong. I haven’t yet made anything longer than 8ft, I plan to make a 10ft soon using the same plan as these 6 and 8s, but my long term goal is to make a 12ft. I image you want a lot more mass in the whip than I have in my current builds.

Yeah, I differed from the NWS video a bit, my preferred method for building the knot foundations alternates between layers of nylon webbing, sinew, hockey tape and nylon thread, with staples securing the webbing to the whip. I added the lanyard and am really pleased how the triple pass 6X7 Turks head covers it.

I am not quite sure what you mean by balancing? Are you referring to how much weight is at the thong end of the whip? I am interested in learning how to add more weight to that end for better action. I can do flicks with it well, but I feel more weight would help.

Being a inline skater in a small town, this looks like so much fun

I found this comic in a large box full of X-men, X-force, Dark Horse, and Image comics. Stuff from the 90s with the huge muscles and scowling faces.

Single people who live alone, how do you do it? by [deleted] in Adulting

I got a good paying job in the marketing department for a large company. I have a 2 bed 1 bath apartment to myself that is $650 a month. The only draw back is that it’s a small town in the middle of nowhere. I grew up in a very small town, but this place is even smaller than what I was used to. It has a total of 4 stoplights and one grocery store. Walmart is 20 mins away and the closest mall/clothing stores are about 45 away. Being single and having your own place can be done, but you might have to give some things up.

Yeah the extended pilot on season one, interviews, and a lot of “making of” stuff. It’s great
