Hey John, I use a waterproof clothing wax, it prevents the wood from cracking during the drying process. but you can use different products to prevent this. It is important that the wood is sealed and can dry slowly.

Another very interesting video about blackthorne sticks.
I'm looking forward to seeing the next one.
Nice music to.
What gel did you put on the end of the stick ?

@@takaristicks Thanks for your answer. I started making sticks last year. I'm just a beginner, so it's great to get advice. Kind regards.
