Hi Everyone
I was recently commissioned to make a Custom Walking stick for a founding member of the LOS CARNALES motorcycle club in Midland Texas. The client sent a photo of the club logo which was to be incorporated as an intarsia on the top of the stick.I did a rough draft of the stick using the specs that the client supplied.The head of the walking stick is made from walnut and the Intarsia consists of 46 pieces made from Walnut, Cherry, Holly, Ebony, Maple and Pau Amarillo.
I had the laser engraving done and painted the lettering then sanded it smooth.The maple shaft is 59" long and tapers from 1 1/2" to 1" and was made using my bandsaw jig. I used a cue stick joint to allow the stick to be broken down into 2 sections.I also made a Custom Carrying Bag to protect it when being transported.This was a fun project.
