    Soap finish on hornbeam (Ironwood)

    Haven't been around much in the last few years, but I remembered y'all when I had a question. The only woodworking I've been able to do for a few years now is make some canes and walking sticks. About the most basic woodworking you can get. But right now I'm been working on a doozy of a cane...

    Walking stick pics

    Here's the walking stick that I have been working on. I finally finished the details and painted it. I usually just carve whatever I feel like out of my head, once in a while I look at photos ( as in the turtle head).

    A natural cane

    For my old age: I have made several walking sticks and canes, but I don't do 'bent wood', like the classic that is steam bent. (1/2 round perfect curve). I am especially proud of this one (and will most likely use this as the preferred 'stick' when I need it). The stick (inside, center)...

    Door Knob Cane

    I took my grandkids to the Raleigh flea market a couple weeks ago and picked up a set of porcelain door knobs because they were "interesting". I decided to make a walking cane from one of them. I also decided that I was going to try to make it by hand. The only machine used was the drill...

    How do you thread a walking cane for the handle

    A friend of mine wants to care a walking cane and he asked if I could make the threads on the end of the cane to where the handle screws on to it - I do not know that much about this but I always thought that there was a male/female part to the handle kit

    Cane repairing pointers

    Hello everyone! Happy New Year!!!!! My cane chair broke and I want to fix it myself. Since this is going to be my first time fixing a cane chair, I have a few questions: 1. Is this something I would regret doing it myself? From some quick google search it looks like the concept is easy...

    An Idiot's Guide To Cane Making

    Or, in other words, almost anyone can make a wooden cane, it ain't rocket science. Decided to make another spare cane. First one was of oak flooring, planed to 1/2"X1" and glued so I've got a cane 1"X1", nicely sturdy, not really heavy, well balanced. This one will be like my present cane...

    old man cane

    My son, Collin, made another cane. He has passed me by on the lathe, I guess I need him to make one for me so I can hobble down to the retirement home. :rotflm: He sold this one and has an order for at least one more. I need him to teach me marketing too. :dontknow:

    Cane Attempt #2

    I've been spending much time in the shop lately (bundled up, as it's been a little chilly :no:) and here is the result of my labors. A new cane, walnut and maple, with a hand rubbed oil finish! I had it done in time for Christmas, but didn't have anyone I thought I should give it too, so I...

    Swiss Army Cane

    A friend of LOML wanted me to make a couple of canes for Christmas gifts. They are for 2 brothers who own a winery. She wanted a sword cane with a corkscrew instead of a blade. I scratched my head, thought about it for a while and here's what I came up with. A few pipe fittings, corks...

    Finished Cane

    LOML commissioned a cane. The original idea was to steam bend walnut and hickory strips and then turn on the lathe. Two little problems: 1. I didn't glue them up straight enough to end up with anything bigger than a toothpick if I turned it. 2. I don't have a chuck and my drive center...
