    Great helpful guide as to how to create a special looking and useful hiking stick. I love that you add Scripture Verses on your hiking stick and the compass makes a lot of sense incase you get lost. Blessings, Rob

      Thanks Rob. These are great for day hikes. The light-weight trekking poles are probably better for multiple day hiking. Thanks for watching!

    If you go hiking and travel over bad terrain, a good stick is recommended. I used this technique, and it holds a flashlight about halfway up.
    It's very easy to do and looks great.

      That came from the tip of an antler shed that I had on hand. You can find antler sheds in the woods, but that takes some effort. There are some places online that sell these. I also find them in antique stores or sometimes yard sales. But try searching online for suppliers. Maybe Etsy.

    May I ask how hard or easy is it to get about the same size bamboo in the USA ?. I like to us a black stem bamboo it grows in my garden so it’s very cheap strong an very light weight. I put those black rubbers on both ends to keep it balanced. Just because I like to play around with it when I’m walking these flat areas practicing my spinning technique an I don’t have to worry about which end I put down on the ground.

    • @fouroakscrafts7240

      Yes, I would think bamboo would make a great hiking stick. Not sure exactly where to buy it here. I googled and found a few suppliers. Looks like some nurseries or garden stores may carry it. How long does it take to grow them yourself?

But for a good 1 inch width an over your looking at about 20 ft an over, to get a nice straight 5 to 6 ft length. But depending what the weather is like we’re you are it may grow faster.

      Of course anyone growing should thin it out fairly regularly. To help it grow so it maybe easier to ask anyone who has it growing already.

    Thanks for th helpful video. I considered a stick from the home center. 😮 😯 Excellent idea 💡 Can you please share the typical size of dowels to look at when purchasing this item? I know you said this item was inch and half. Is that the diameter? And how long of a dowel? , I am just new to this and am so excited to try it out!

    • @fouroakscrafts7240
      @fouroakscrafts7240  Рік тому +1

      The dimensions vary. I've found some with a 1.25" diameter and some with 1.5" diameter. I've seen them come 4ft long and 6ft long. This could also vary with you store location and what they carry. You can also use red oak dowels, but poplar seems to be lighter. Hope this helps! thanks for watching!

    • @fouroakscrafts7240
      @fouroakscrafts7240  9 місяців тому

      I haven't thought about it from that standpoint since I was just focusing on the grip area. Of course, you could continue with the spiral wrap the whole length of the stick. Hopefully that doesn't make the hiking stick heavier or bulkier.

    A Clove hitch is a very insecure hitch to start and end with. You would be much more secure with an Ashley Constrictor Knot.

    Why a spiral hitch and not a different wrap pattern?
    I've used fishscale and some others for different grip and texture. (All using 550)
    Also the leftover cord into a cobra or some other knot for decoration...
