Your Workshop is clean and organized. You already have my attention. I've had this interest to make "walking sticks/canes" for a while, and now I have tools to work with and some brances of Maple. I really, appreciate you honesty on the Safety concern. This should always be number #1. You delivered your instructions with very clarity, and effectiveness. I'm sure you Mother In-Law will appreciate your piece of Art!
Nice job. I won't rag on your safety practices. I have had a accident on my table saw. It only took a nanosecond for it to happen. I wasn't using a push stick or push tool. Any way it tore the hell out of my left thumb. Kind of macerated the heck out of it. Several stitches later and a little over 3 months for it to heal. I'm just sharing this event with you, because I wouldn't want this to happen to you. Even the Doctor that stitched me up, said it could have gone much worse. Take care & Happy wood working. GF1 😁😁😁
Real nice job. I was worried about you losing a finger on the table saw when your fingers were in between the blade & fence. I've thought about gluing pieces together like that but I was worried about it coming apart. Yours appears to be just fine. Thanks for sharing..
Nice! The shaft of your cane should prove nearly unbreakable owing to the flexible (soft?) maple and the 2 hardwoods running at cross-grain. Though it seems to me that the head of the cane would be much stronger if the entire cane were cut from 3 whole planks sandwiched together. Two canes could be cut out the sandwiched planks as the heads are cut from the opposite ends. I wonder whether the woods should have been kiln-dried before gluing to prevent shrinkage?
I have made three canes without a lathe. I use a hand plane to join the three species of wood and spoke shave to shape them. The hand tools worked fine, just don't be in a rush and sharpen them often. It's quiet in the shop, with a whisper of the plane or spoke shave and the music low in the background. The canes turned out beautifully.
You’d think for your mother in law you wouldn’t want it to be so dependable. Just kidding. Great job. Most of these Bandsaw Bettie’s just blowing smoke because they don’t have a shop. You have to respect everything every tool. Even the pros don’t do it safe all the time.
Man it came out very nice...but please invest in a push guide for working with the saw...I cut my thumb and im telling you its not worth the chance I learned the hard way lol
Ahhh okay... I trust that glue 100%. If I held that finished cane by the bottom and started beating the handle on the concrete, I’m confident the 3 layers of wood would snap before a piece broke off at a glue joint.
whknee I’m honestly not sure... What I did was Google images of derby cane handles and saved them. Then I brought that image into Word. With the ruler setting “on” and a rough hand measurement, I was able to scale the image, print it, then trace it onto the wood. Does that help?
I'm not thinking there is any use in us pointing that out....I've had poor luck changing people's opinion as how to do anything by offering mine. Damn shame about that....but there it is. It's that 'one screwup' that takes care of that.....but then, it's too late.
Cane is great, can't say that about saw safety practice. I use a pusher and have still managed to amputate the ends of both index fingers I almost stopped watching because of the carelesness.

Dang thts a nice cane!

Great cane. You really need to use guides for that table saw!

Fingers bro fingers got me worried there for a min coming from someone who chopped the top of my thumb off😐
Great design, looks wonderful
Thanks for this video. I made a cane almost identical and somewhat similar in the method. I had no issues and it turned out great!
Great job!
WELL DONE! THANKS FOR SHARING.
Thank you for experimenting with the assembly method !!!

Really enjoyed your video. I don't use power tools so I guess I am out of luck making a cane. A walking stick, maybe!

Would like to know how you rounded the cross section of the handle.
Very nice! Love the shaft extension INTO the handle - super strong. Any interest in selling one?
muy buen trabajo y muy útil
I have a nice piece of Brazilian Cherry wood that I want too make a cane from. Is it a good hard wood for a cane?

Really nice walking stick how much do you trust the Glue and what type glue would it be please good Job bloke 10/10.
I’m not sure what your first question is, but I used Titebond II glue I think.
First Question was ( sorry about Spelling) How much do you trust the glue (Titebond II) in an application like a walking stick please.
Ahhh okay... I trust that glue 100%. If I held that finished cane by the bottom and started beating the handle on the concrete, I’m confident the 3 layers of wood would snap before a piece broke off at a glue joint.
What are measurements of wood peices?
1:28 6 months since the glue up?
what was the overall length of your handle?

Can you tell me the name of the machine you used to cut out the handle please?
He used a scroll saw.
Where do you get the handle pattern
You use the table saw like you can just grow new fingers...

Push sticks. 😕

Poor safety practice when using a saw ! If you where working in my shop ,you would be fired!!
But he's not so you can't 😔
@@trevfeht4113 just saying, call it like i see it. i mean well, all to often i see bad practice, often things bad happen
Do you make walking canes for sole sale and if so how much?
