@@JasonHedrich I, too dabble in making canes and shillelaghs and traditional dance regalia (warclubs, staffs). And after all the various canes, clubs, shillelaghs, etc. that I've seen online, I have to say that this and the Canadian Shillelagh are easily the most beautiful work I've seen. You have a great eye as well as a huge creative streak. P.S. I'm a fellow Canadian, eh

Beautiful work, Jason. Love the how the epoxy seems to flow like a river through the butternut grain. Keep on, keeping on!
@JasonHedrich10 ай бұрын
Thank you very much! Yes, the epoxy and the wood works very well together in this one... Turned out better than I thought
Turned out great, Jason! LOVE that grain! Recently added epoxy resin to my stick making repertoire and I'm thinking it'll be a game changer.

It does add a different look to the standard wood topper. And the Color selections let’s you customize the final look of the piece

Used your layout process for two Celtic weave staffs this winter. Easy peasy! One question…why do you use a vice instead of a shave horse when working on cylindrical crafts?
@JasonHedrich10 ай бұрын
Great, glad you were able to complete the design! I use a vice because it’s on my workbench, I simply don’t have room to have a shave horse as well as a workbench. I use my workbench for many other projects so I choose to go with the universal workbench and skip a dedicated shave horse. But I agree, that a shave horse would probably hold my sticks better than the small vice.

Hi Jason, I'm new to stick making and fancy having a go at this, could you tell me exactly what rasp file you were using, great video by the way. Phil
@JasonHedrich9 ай бұрын
Great to hear! I would start with a half round wood rasp… that will do just about anything you need. Also Kutzall makes great wood rasps as well. Good luck with your build!

Exactly, putting the oil on and seeing the amazing grain pop from a nice piece of wood makes all the hours sanding worth it!

I remember this kind of sticks were used for hunting ,fighting ,walking. Don't know if this will be good for hunting maybe fighting
@JasonHedrich2 ай бұрын
Not sure it has enough weight for fighting, its a good everyday walking cane. I left it a bit long so it can be used like a hiking stick or shortened down to a cane.
