Default Never Never Stick

What a mess! How can one make so many mistakes on a single stick? I had this semi-finished at least three times.....never, never insert finished scrimshaw into an un-finished stick, change spacers, tops,ect. ect! But, she's finished...as far as I ever want to go with this.

:-) Looks pretty good to me....but I'll try to remember your suggestion next time I consider taking on such a project. My staff has been sitting in the corner for a year waiting for me to finish rounding it out....so I *really* better remember! Good job, no matter how many times you ....almost...finished it.. :-)

Thanks guys for all your support.......I was happy with it couple times....Ha! The diamond willow is really great to work with feel, looks, and a great smell! I am working with spruce shafts and making diamond willow handles now.....should be alsot easier now with all the learning on this last effort.

Hi Mate,
I would love to get hold of that Diamond Willow! Lovely looking Stick and am impressed with the Scrimshaw! I had a little Etching tool and a few Nibs for Christmas, so will have a crack as soon as I am up to it.
Corion you say ?
Happy New Year
Simon
