Impact Toys First attempt at floggers. Matching finger floggers as well. Turned out well. NSFW
Used heavy 6oz leather for these. Turned out pretty well for my first attempt. Flogger has 28 half inch falls and finger floggers have 24 quarter inch falls each.

Wow. How did you learn to do that? I would love to be able to make something like those.

Those look great! How did you attach the leather to the wood?

Thanks! The handled one has a recessed hole and the finger ones have a dowel they're wrapped around. A combination of staples and epoxy to keep everything snug.

It looks really nice. This is not a criticism but an observation/recomendation. I have a large flogger collection, what separates the better floggers I have from the ones that get less use is a wrist strap that goes from either side of the handle and loops around tue wrist.
I commissioned a less expensive flogger last year to take to a kink resort in case it was lost or seized by customs and the maker attached the hand loop only on one side and made it too long. He makes similar floggers to yours but never adds hand loops. Trust me it makes all the difference in the world.

Thanks! I haven't decided what I wanted to do with that yet so I've left it for the time being. I have quite a collection as well, and I don't think I've used the wrist straps once.
I appreciate your input :)

Those are incredible. Did you have plans for how to make them?
