This is a cane I made for our good neighbor, Carolyn , who is from North Dakota and lives in the place next door in the winter. Carolyn and Phil walk every day in all kinds of weather and I told them I would make them both canes for this winter.
This one is 34" long made from female box elder and walnut and finished with clear satin Poly.
I made the 1" diameter at the bottom a little longer in case it needs to be shortened.
I personalized the handle for her.
Cheers, Jim

Nicely done! I like the laminate in the body. Almost looked like bamboo the way you had it turned at first. 👍🏼

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

Thanks Ron and Ryan! I wanted it light for her so I use box elder. Most of the other wood in the barn is too heavy. Phil's is in the lathe tonight.
Cheers, Jim
