SIMPLE WALKING STICK PATTERN - carving

Welcome back, here is a simple walking stick, perfect for a rainy weekend project. Using a smaller stick from Butternut, it was a bit too small in diameter for a nice woodcarving, so I decided to spruce it up using a hexagonal pattern for the top portion of the walking stick. This is an easier project for those just getting into walking sticks but comes out looking great. The pattern was made using a rotary tool like a Dremel and requires only a short amount of time to complete. Hope you enjoyed this one and leave your comments below with your thoughts on how this turned out.

You should have done the pattern all the way down, looks good.

I think this is a fantastic piece. The patterns are very cool and I appreciate your overall vision of it. There is something special about working with wood that has always drawn me to it artistically. It certainly started with a knife and stick when I was a youth., but I quickly realized that there was so much more.

What’s the name of the tool you’re using to scrape off the bark?

[josephinelynngipson]

so you finish your stick with oil? i use food coloring to dye mine then when i put the clear coat on it ruins it. so sad, very good job sir

Dear sir, I am a great admirer about the bird heads you make ( I also want to pursue this) I love Walnut fon't know if it will work for this?

Really pretty wood, I like the simplicity of the Honeycomb pattern and yet it has a big impact. Which bit are you using to lightly carve the pattern?

Sorry to ask but what kind of tool are you using here?

[russn]

Do you need to strap the green sticks down like that or will they bend as they dry out?

[joejoe]

Very beautiful! May I ask the name of the tool you used to carve in the grip design?❤️

[rumppleskin]

[offairhead]

I’ve never worked with butternut or heard of anyone I know working with it or known of it growing here (in Texas), where are you that this was growing?
