Walking Stick

[Curly Early]

My Grandson asked me to make him a cowboy walking stick and after I got it done, think I may make another for myself. I had a Gerald Sears Roughout I thought I could cut off and seemed to work just fine. I drilled and tapped both pieces 1/4-20 and super glued the threads as I screwed them together. Seems very strong and threads held amazingly well when tightened. Thank you for looking---Earl IMG_2363.jpgIMG_2365.jpgIMG_2364.jpg

Elegant. I can hear someone asking if the bust is that of a relative. Maybe the next one should be?

[Rontana]

That's a fantastic looking stick and topper. Well done!

Excellent Cowboy carving! Lots of nice detail there. That 'stache reminds me of Sam Elliot!

WELL DONE! I'm sure this stix will gather lots of comments will it out for a stroll. I fasten my cane/stix tops in the same matter, It really seems to work well. I've made a couple of gun rest stix that have an adjustable collar with the threads for adjusting the height of the rifle rest.

Great looking stick. I really enjoy doing doing things for the grand kids. Your Grandson will no doubt cherish that one.

Thank you everyone who looked and those who commented. I also appreciate all the tips that have been expressed in the past making it easier for those of us that are a bit unsure how to do what we are attempting. Had another Grandson here last night and you'd never guess what he wants, I bet you do. He built me a water cooled computer from a bunch of parts and told everyone, me and Grandpa built it together. I said if that meant me holding the light so he could see where all those plugs, wires and dangling things fit, then I guess we built it together. I love my Grandkids!

Nice job Earl. Your heart is in the right place for sure.

Beautiful carving. But, not very practical as a walking stick. Should it fall over and get dropped the hat would be history. imho.
