Hi my name is Scott and I just discovered this site and joined, I very much enjoyed looking through he site and seeing some of the things people made. I am a walking cane builder and have been making them for 15 years and sell them on line and at craft shows occasionally.

Welcome, Scott. We hope you stick around. Some of us actually know what we're talking about.

Hi Scott. Spent a day in Spokane a few years ago. Very nice place, hope to get back to the area at some point.

I really admire the works you posted in the gallery section. Your years of practice are evident. Everything looks very professional. I particularly like the "palm" handle sticks. I've been messing w. grip area shapes since I started a few years ago. Your treatment looks to be a nice innovation. Have any shots with a hand on the grip?

Welcome Scott. A very nice, varied group of sticks and canes. They look top shelf.

Thank you all and looking forward to being a member. @Gdenby I am actually building a Palm grip cane today out of black walnut I will get you a picture.

Welcome aboard Scott! We visit Seattle from time to time, and love the area. I'm an amateur compared to you, I spend so much effort on a stick for family and old Marines that I'd have to charge $10,000 each to make it worthwhile, but I have fun nonetheless.

I'll look forward to seeing some of your creations.

Hello Rodney, yes we are neighbors, I have been to your area many times I use to have my business in Vancouver and moved to the east side of the state for the dry weather and four season. Concerning my work I have been at it a long time and that just a sample of some of the recent stuff, thank you.

@ gdenby, here are a couple pictures of me holding a palm grip walking cane I finished last week. The palm grip is not my design they have been available for years generally found made of plastic and an aluminum shaft. I saw a need to make them out of wood so I bought a duplicator and figured it out and since then I made about 70 of them. The original name for the handle is called a Fisher I assume was the name of the doctor that came up with it.
