I have read the topics on cutting and straightening sticks. My Grandson has helped me to create stick making videos on youtube, to make sure the craft is kept alive for the future. We have covered topics on stick cutting, straightening sticks, making a dowel joint, bending Buffalo horn into a nose out crook and natural Thumb sticks. People can actually see the work being done. Enter woodlandsticks and you will find all seven videos
