I’m a newbie, no machine shop, jujst a rasp, sandpaper and paracord. A friend gave me a “spirit stick” that I began to rely on as I took my daily
walks. I have had both knees replaced and neuropathy in both feet, so my balance is terrible. The stick does a wonderful job of helping my balance, my primary problem. Thus my interest in walking sticks.
i have made several for friends and anticipate several more, collecting and making them is a great way to pass the time!

Right now I’m focusing on sassafras since it’s lightweight and dries quickl.
