Stick Making: A Complete Course
Andrew Jones,Clive George
What Americans call a cane, the British call a stick. They invented the things, so they ought to know. This handbook reveals the traditional craft, which relies on precise choice of materials. Find and season the wood; fix flaws; shape and straighten sticks; cut wood to size; fit a ferrule; form a handle; and varnish the finished item. Begin with a basic v-shaped thumbstick, or make simple, one-piece walking sticks, four cardigan sticks, wooden crooks and market sticks, ram's horn and antler sticks, buffalo and ram's horn crooks, carved sticks in wood and horn, and a variety of fancier models. Recommended.
