I hope you've had your tea, this might take a little explaining!
I had an Email awhile back asking if I had 'reject' sticks that I could let go at a knock-down price...mmmm! Well, last week I had another one with a little more explanation from someone else and it made me think.
The second E mentioned that not everyone has the capability or the spare cash or nor do they live in an area which enables them to go walking all that often so buying a 'proper' stick doesn't come close to being a priority. So, although having a walking companion is a nice thing to have, it's not exactly top of the list of 'must have's'. So, (the question goes).... 'Do I have any worked on sticks which would be good enough to walk about with but not one quite so posh?'
The answer is yes!
Of all the sticks I spend time on making, there is a certain amount that I take as far as I can but due to all sorts of reasons I don't take them all the way to the finish stage. I don't discard them, I usually pass them on to family or friends or even hang them on a tree in my local wood for others to pick up and use but I don't put them up for sale because I don't consider them quite good enough to sell.
So, to answer the Emails and maybe help a stick fill a friendly hand now and then I'm asking if anyone would like to own a reliable and worthwhile stick which is not quite up to the standard I normally offer?
There is a small cost that would have to cover P&P and materials and a bit for A4A but will work out at quite a bit less than normal.
Contact me below if this suits you.
