    Oh my, I had flashbacks to watching Etho vidoes back in 2012...

    i enjoyed using a tapered fall on my first. thank you very much for that. i would like help with how to use a longer rod in the handle to approximate hybrid performance. i used 15" fiberglass in place of 12" following Adam's "bare bones" whip, but i also extended the belly and the adds, winding up with a 9 ft. now i hope to build a sensible 7 ft. how does a 16" rod sound? thanks for the encouragement, teaching, and kindness.

      16" handle would be long for a bull whip but you can use the same general formula for any size whip

    This is a very interesting method for figuring out strand lengths. I sometimes find that I get overly tedious.
    I have a request for a future video as well. Could you make a detailed video on how to do an English Eye build in detail, I can't find a video that does a good job of explaining how the process works.

    Why did you divide by 5 on the overlay?

    • @eliasonwhipco

      Adding or dropping in doubles it gives an even space between all the drops. Just how I've gotten the math to work out

    What would you change to transfer this method to a snake whip?

    • @eliasonwhipco
      @eliasonwhipco  Рік тому

      I would start the taper much sooner say 3 inches from your 0 point where your heal knot would be.

    Would this method still apply if using the 275 Paracord?

    • @eliasonwhipco
      @eliasonwhipco  3 роки тому +1

      Yes the method over all would work you would have to adjust the amount of strands to 28 on the overlay and I think to get your lengths with the 275 cord you would want to times it by 1.8 or 2

    Why do you add with 12? To get 72.
    Is it the number of strands in the overlay?

    • @eliasonwhipco
      @eliasonwhipco  4 роки тому +1

      I multiply 12x6 to get 72 because I want the whip to be 6 foot long. 12 inches in a foot i want the whip to be 6 feet. 12 inches x 6 foot gives me how many inches long the whip is to make strand drops easier. And the overlay is 16 strands
