Sarah, Pyfor should be with you about now.

I am hoping he will arrive tomorro Ken, fingers crossed.

Ken he is 6ft tall, and needs a right hand sturdy stick please. ;D.
PS yes he can grip alright.

I'm UK bound this week, Rose. Back in 2 weeks. I'll make a start before I leave but it will be after then before he's done. Contact you when I get back.

OK Ken, thank you have a great break here in UK, be in touch when you get back ;D ;DRegards Rose.

If you see a plane flying over your plot about 8.00 pm....it's me...I'll tell you how stright your rows are...! :D

Kenkew, Pyfor the stick you made for my dads birthday has arrived this morning safe and sound. He is so lovely I just wanted to say thank you very much.  I cant wait to pass him on to his new owner! Sarah.

I'm pleased your pleased, Sarah. Hope your dad makes good use of him.
To Rosebud: Made a start on a couple. I'll put pic's on when I get close to finishing for you to decide.

'Jay', a longer stick for a person of at least 6' tall. Quite strong without being too heavy. Jay only has one eye on account of that's what he grew up with! He weighs in at 270 gram and is 109cm long. (43")
Any interest in Jay?

Next one up this week is 'Claud'. Quite weighty at 295grams. He's a metre (39") tall and pretty robust. Does Claud appeal to anyone?

Finished 'Petra' this morning. A lighter stick for a smaller person weighing in at 144 grams and with a length of 34" (86cm). Does Petra take your fancy? Got a question? Ask me over on the 'Walking Companions' thread or E-mail me as below.


Sorry, Petra has gone...whoosh!!

This one is 'Jundi', finished him last night. A medium weight stick at 195 grams and a length of 90cm. (36")

This is 'Wyss'. Finished today and looking for a home. 155 gram in weight and stands 79cm (31" tall...or rather, short!) Anyone?

Ken just got back from holiday i shall be in touch OK    Mary. ;D

This is Sealy. Small stick for a lighter person. Only 110Grams and 29"long.

Sorry, Sealy has sail away.

Hot off the varnishing table is Jingo. 280grams and 87cm (34") tall and one of my favourites to-date. Who wants Jingo?

Now, if you ever want to argue with a bit of wood, get a bit of this wood. This is the toughest stick I've ever worked. First I thought it was Elm....then I thought, 'No way, this is Oak'...But I've worked lots of Oak and non have been as resistant as this was to everything I did. I kept putting it away and going back to it to work it again but it didn't get any easier. Finaly, I decided that if that's what he wants to look like, so be it, I'm not going to force him to be what what he doesn't want. Consequently he's come out looking more or less as I found him. I've rubbed him down a bit...Ha! Just a bit! and I varnished him after he allowed me to put a couple of 'grips' around the handle, but that's about all he'd allow so that's all he got!
A good strong stick with a naturally shaped  conventional grip. Good stick and we enjoyed our battles! (Even if he won.)
Her's about 92cms tall and would suit a man close to 6' in height. I like him. Do you?
(The photo shows a ragged stem...it's not, it's just the pic.)

Here's Hando.

This is Nat. He's got a horse shoe (ish) shape to his top. Nice stick. A decent weight at 196Grams and 94 cms (37") long.

Hi Ken, i shall get back to you ok great sticks.
