Now why would you need a mini lathe for whip making?

It's always better if you actually produce.

Looking forward to getting my mini lathe this coming month. High time I started making whips again.

For precision turning the handles and counterweights for floggers. I'm not the kind that just drills a hole in the end of a handle and glues in fishing weights. Balance and throw is very important.

And for making custom metal butt caps. For producing tooling to cut and skive lace. I have about a year and a half of professional training in machining-skills I intend to make pay in the leather business. I can produce and provide options other makers cannot-that's how you get a competitve edge.

Innovation.

The biggest issue in manufacturing is turning out stuff fast enough-but keeping the quality up.

Thank god for cnc mills and lathes.

And I felt the need to add....I'm also looking at investment casting. Especially in trees. I like the idea of having buckles and fittings that only my shop can produce.

Am I strange in that I would love to find a beautiful flogger/cat such as the ones mentioned previously, but I would prefer synthetic materials?? Yeah, I know, I will totally eat anything with a face, I own leather shoes and purses (after all, cow is mighty tasty) but I don't exactly relish the thought of a playtoy that is made from kangaroos. Or bison. Any thoughts?

I make all sorts of toys from nylon, hemp, rubber, and other types of rope. Although, I also have roo, deer, elk, bison, and cow floggers as well. I must say though that some of my favorite floggers are rope. And although it is not my choice, at least I respect those who choose to play without dead animal items.
