I find it absolutely amazing that I can go out in the woods find the right piece of dead crappy looking wood,and bring out all the good in it.I'm getting better with my draw knife and learned that turning it upside down is a better way to use it. A couple hrs in the shop and the crappy ugly wood comes out looking like this.Just had to share these pics.

Certainly one of the great aspects of making sticks. It seems the uglier and more distressed the wood, the nicer it finishes out.

Nice piece! It is amazing isn't it! You never know what you will find on a walk -- so always be prepared!
