Interesting..... you don't happen to make whips for sale do you? : ) His wording was similar to this on another forum: I don't take a lot of orders so that whip making can continue to be an enjoyable hobby, not a rushed process. Pagey can tell you more, but that's the gist of it, yes he does, but not a ton.

Yes, that's about the size of it. The saddle tan whip I made recently was for a customer. This one I made with some left over hides.
Generally I won't take on an order unless I feel I have enough time to enjoy making the whip. I have a fulltime job, a family, and other interests which is why I reduced my whipmaking and ditched the website.
Anyone interested in having a whip can send me a pm - and I will tell them whether or not I can take them on as a customer.

Thanks for the reply Pagey! You make some gorgeous whips so I can see why you'd be inundated with potential customers. But as a craftsman myself, I can respect the fact that you choose to do it as a hobby rather than a business so that whip-making stays a hobby and never becomes work.
