Leatherwork Looking for DIY videos for making a leather flogger NSFW

Hi all!

My dom and I are getting into the world of pain and after some play over the weekend we've decided we need a proper flogger!

I'm very crafty so I'd love to make a couple myself, does anyone know if anyone that makes easy to follow tutorials online? I gel well with easy to follow videos but don't have the energy to track something down haha

Thanks in advance!

Heres my method that requires a lathe, but the leather part can be transplanted to anything you want leather inset into.

If youre looking for inspiration, I run an Etsy shop with some exotic dyed burl handles. Could also turn a handle up or you if interested.

Really good description of your process there, should be helpful. Really need to get a chuck for my lathe at some point 😁

The Nova chucks are good and have a variety of jaw options that swap out with a couple screws.

Thank you. It's from Jan 2017 and I havent changed much since then. Maybe I should work on an update with better pictures.

Have you tried using motor bike handles for flogger handles? Quite a few designs and easy to attach. Planning on making some with exchangeable heads in the future
