Walking Sticks

[Panache]

I picked up this simple cromach at the Ben Lomond Highland Games.

It is a hardwood staff that has been bent under steam. The was some machine sanding near the thin part of the crook (not sure why) that is a bit uneven and I don't think much of the stain. For $25 I still think it was a very good deal. 40 minutes of sanding and staining made it a whole lot nicer. When it is finished drying I will try to get another photo.

The stain had dried on my new cromach and it is waxed and ready to go.

Sticks (and one brolly)



Staffs

Puffer,

(1) The kilt/tartan is a Stillwater wool Heavyweight kilt in a weathered variant of the Lamont tartan (it is half the sett). I got the last one in my size from the last run Jerry did of the tartan. I am pretty sure he isn't planning on bringing it back. A lot of X Markers have them so they do come up for sale from time to time in the "For Sale" forum. I love the earth tones, it is a subtle yet very handsome tartan.

(2) I bought the cane at a TJ MAxx store for about $10. It was missing it's handle (hence the great deal) and I took it home and made a top for it out of an antler corona.

Both the kilt and cane are favorites of mine, thanks for noticing them .

Cheers

Jamie
