Walking stick
Well instead of posting start A@#e comments, though I would post what I have had a chance to do in the shed for a change...
I have made two walking sticks, both one piece. I only have pictures of one (Thats mine), the other one got seconded by my father for his use
The timber is roadsideus palatus... (I think it is actually meranti)I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

No arguments from me, all I have to do is get the time in the shed to actually make something

Got some time this arvo (Playing Mr Mum for a couple of days) and made some replacement handles for MIL rolling pin, so extra brownie points for that one
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Walking Stick.
Why is it a walking stick?
Why do our feet smell but our noses run?
Why do we have Unisex toilets? I always thought there were two.
What Lousy @$%!&* disabled the toilet?
BLoody good stick with handle BTW.

Nice whacking stick!
Did you make it to a specific length (usually inside of wrist) or just "whatever it turned out to?"

Yeah, got my old stick (I broke it...) and found a bit a wood the same length and made it round Originally Posted by Skew ChiDAMN!!

The length is the same as my old stick (maybe a little longer). The other was made the same length and I will cut it down, when dad decides what height he wants it.I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Is it addictive?
Maybe we need a walking stick turning forum.

Have been wanting to try one for a while. Only problem is who to give it to. Offer someone a stick and and they may get the idea you think they are getting too old.
