My father has a serious knee problem and his doctor told him to get a cane but he refuses to do so. I figure that if I get him a staff he would be more inclined towards using it.
I’ve never sold any but have been given offers on my personal staff even befroe it was finnished , it used to be the leaves and two frogs on top but one of the cats decided it looked good in pieces on the floor. I make most of them out of drift wood maple from the falls up near us . i use that because all the pourse on the wood are already open and it makes it much lighter to carry. carving it is tough seeing as how brittle the stuff is but once you get about 20 coats of polyurothaine on it its very strong . I have had a 400+ pound man lean on my staff and it held up with no cracking at all . All my wood is found not harvested , i have one found piece that is really odd with a hole in the top like a nest , its hard wood and not drift so its gonna be a tough one and its not very light.
