Here's my latest offering just finished. As i said above it's made from hazel with a piece of cherry on the top. I turned the cherry on my lathe. It took alot of staining and sanding because i wanted quite a contrast between the colours. In places i have painted it with bronze model paint. The handle may look a little different but it does give a good grip. The sticks approximately 4 foot six high and 11/2 inches wide, the top is 2 inches wide.

Lots of skills there Andy, looks really good.
How long would it take to produce a stick like that?
