WALKING STICK WITH A TWIST
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
This week we are working with a beautiful piece of cherry. This stick has some amazing colors and patterns and not much has to be done to enhance its beauty. We carve a twist, some woodburning and add a new lanyard style and stick to the end and I show you an easy way to polish hardwood and produce a glass like finish! Hope you like the build and let me know your thoughts.

i like my walking sticks that reach the top of my head so it doesnt jam under my jaw in case i slip or fall and also like a bolt or metal for good foot instead of the rubber. tight lines!

Nice, never thought of it that way. I like the rubber foot as it's quiet on pavement but yes, the spike gives better grip in soil. Thanks for watching

@@JasonHedrich Yes, that is a sad story. The dying and deaths of our loved ones as such impactful times in our lives. I find walking stick and staffs to be meaningful and symbolic too. I have three large clay pots as holding stands; one holds about a dozen walking sticks, another holds about 10 long staffs, and the third has several each. I have carved symbols and symbolic patterns on many of them. My mum and dad's walking sticks are among them, a friend's fencing quarterstaff who passed away that her sister gave to me. Every stick and staff is meaningful. They remind me of the 23rd psalm.

Just out of a hot bath on a cold day over on the northeast coast England, Logged onto the KZread and then found your vid. Magic, a really well presentation of making a walking stick. I'm normally making alsorts in wood, currently making sets of drawers, dolls houses and miniature shops pus lots more. After watching a clip the other week making sticks, thumb sticks started to look for material while out and about. Found a few items of all shapes and sizes brought them home so here we go on another adventure in something completely the opposite to what I normally work, play with. Thank you for a great vid and will let you know how I get on with sticks. Take care from the UK. Peter

He used hand tools and I only used hand tools to make two different sticks with his lessons. You will seriously enjoy and learn no power tools are needed for making a basket weave. You don't need a drill or Dremel just skip it and chisel it. You will surprise yourself. Have fun and the first step is the hardest but it's addictive once you get bite. Good luck
Do you ever consider removing the bark when it is still green and then drying it because it is easier to remove then? When I made walking sticks ( not as fancy as yours!)
