Don,t know if this is the right place to post this but here we go anyway.
I,m going to try making walking sticks, the kind herdsmen used to use,you know the kind,the ones with horn handles that were used for hooking lambs by the back legs when the herd wanted to check them over.
So i just wondered if anybody else had any experience with making these things.
I,ve got a nice old bit of coppice not to far from my home.
The reason i,m trying to make these things is because i used to have an old herd that used to stay next door to me. He was going to show me how to make them,but unfortunately he became ill and saddly died, so he never got the chance to pass the skill on to me. So i,ve done some reading on the subject and i,m going to give it a bash.
I thought i would be nice to learn another craft.
