I’ve had a go at making a cain I use old rasp and files for twist.
I definitely need set of rasps. Took a fair bit of time to do twist and I also kept refining handle.
The wood I used is Iroko for handle and Ash for cain. I have put a couple of coats of thinned shellac as a sanding sealer and so far I have got two coats of button polish shellac which is close to amber shellac in colour.
I will probably put another coat of button polish on then buff up with furniture polish.
Mark have you got the rubber end for you cane yet , if so where did you get it from,
David, the cane looks nice. You did a good job bringing out the end grain.
David, your cane is exceptional and I would be proud to use a cane like this one. Thanks the Lord I’m not there yet!
Thanks guys
David I nicked rubber off of an old walking cane.
