Stick so far.

[fatchap]

Fella popped round this morning, wasn't best pleased knocking on my door at 7am, but he was very happy with the stick, even had a bit of tear in his eye when he saw the British Legion badge. he had no idea I was doing that. anyway he paid me more than I was asking, I did argue, a lot because I kind of enjoy making them more than thinking about how much its worth, Sounds stupid but the look on someones face when they get something I have made is worth more than money to me.

Another happy customer, Now to get on with a filleting knife and a wrought Iron log basket.....not the best weather for firing up the forge, so it will probably be the filleting knife.

 

Cheers for all the replies and comments chaps, much appreciated.

There are some really nice people on this forum without a doubt.  Look forward to a full report on the log basket.

Looks lovely. I can't help looking for shafts while out n about so far made my old lady and the old man sticks now as ther in ther 80s. I use one becuase I have a knakerd hip an knee. So while out on the fields iv had to put a sling on the gun and the stick is a dam handy tool and it's not a new idea but I grabbed a couple small neodinium magnets of ebay and put them at the bottom of my stick just above the rubber. I drilled all the way through and used resin to fix inplace so the stick lost no strength ect. No more groaning n moaning  bending over to collect my emptie carts .. Bloody Great as its no fun getting old
