| | Re: new works Frank...Nice eagal cane. Did you hand carve that staff or has it been turned on a lathe? I assume that the eagal is basswood. What kind of wood is the staff? And how is the eagal secured to the staff?

| | Re: new works Eddy smiles-you are correct the eagle is Basswood,and it is glued with epoxy glue to the walnut handle using two dowels,the shaft is oak epoxcied & mortised too the walnut handle.the shaft is worked using a dremel and burr(not carved),and a lot of sanding.
