@@brewsterly2927 I use boiled linseed. Build up many, many coats. Letting it dry out between. Using a bit of wire wool as I go. Ends up so nice. It adds weight as well. Not much, but tangible. I find the oil finish gives a better grip also.
Hello interesting project ! Just. Ordering how you managed so well to straighten the dog leg so well at the bottom of your stick !? I tried on some of my blackthorn sticks with a heat gun without much success ..
Dog legs pretty much impossible to remove best it to just try and straighten as much as can without damaging the wood sometimes you get lucky without a bad dog leg
Nice looking stick mate,what would be the best way to load that stick , melt the lead and pour it in or use lead shot and compres it in a bit at a time ?
Cheers mate appreciate it 👍 pour molten lead into the cavity lead melts and sets at quite low temps, or work a bit of lead before inserting it probably be safer easier if have the ability
So you may be attacked by a person armed with a weapon of whatever type yet you may not defend yourself or your loved ones with a weapon ! That is exactly why I am anti establishment , especially the UK and common wealth countries. You guys need to start reclaiming your basic rights instead of accepting yourselves as subjects to a tyrannical class of rulers.
great job, nice walking stick. Interesting video.👍🤝🤝
Thank you 😁
new subscriber and fellow cane /shillelagh maker like your work and enjoy your projects . 2 thumbs up buddy
Thanks mate appreciate it 😁 it’s always fun working on sticks
Looks great, JP! Shame the cleek didn't work out but that's just all part of the adventure of stickmaking. Cheers!
Cheers mate, hopefully get a good blank too work on but like most sticks gotta impressive at times
It would make both a good walking stick and ghanja pipe.
Will try make one one day wonder if the wood will change the flavour 😂
Try it when you move to Canada.
Love ye vids mate 👍 I just use oil instead of varnish meself though. I love the smell, and it's cheaper 👍
Cheers mate appreciate it 😁 only use vanish as it all I got and didn’t wanna just waste it lol
I like that an oil finished is a easier , touch up , for us lazy lads
What sort of oil?

No worries
why didnt you see a unicorn with a pointed brass horn and a feathear shaped piece of brass on top?
This one time I took shrooms I was convinced I saw a unicorn
Is it still for sale?
No not as yet I do still have it but just figuring out the best way to sell them
Are you guys not allowed to defend yourselves in the UK ?
Not with weapons no I’m afraid 😂

If you defend yourself here in the UK, you will likely end up in more trouble than the rat that attacked you.
@@eugenevictortooms4174it’s getting that way here in the States. It won’t last too long that way, peace brother.
In Russia the same.@@eugenevictortooms4174
