Love it! Someday, I would love to own one. I just cannot swing it right now. Perhaps I might commission one from you in the future?

Very nice Thomas. I especially like the look of the two contrasting colors of wood. I do a little woodworking and have been thinking about making one myself. How did you learn how to make it and how is the handle attached to the stick? (If that's proprietary information, I understand)
Anyway, great job; I think you're going to have a nice little side business there.

He put a bonnet on his head, and stuck the Fraser emblem, a sprig of yew, in it. With the battle cry, A'Chaisteal Dhunaidh and the scream of the pipes, they charged to battle.

Well I have only sold one at a game so not going to well lol.
But the handle is drilled and the stick is drilled and a 6 inche alum. rod glued in .
for strengh.
I cut the handles out off wood 2" thick then sand them night after night after night . to the finish i want
then I stain them and let them dry and re stain .
then I adjust and sand here and there .
They are nice and I like making them .
I can post some pictures of the process in another thread soon .
I thought about making just handles and selling them instead of the whole cromach too .
do you think they would sell better ?
Thank you for your interest

Thank you for that information Thomas. I think it would be fun to make one.
I've seen venders selling cromach's and other types of walking sticks at festivals, games and renfairs but generally, the quality isn't very good (crudely made and poorly finished). Yours is nice and neat with a fine clear finish; I would think that you could easily sell them to those of us who like hand made items of good quality.
I look forward to more pictures.
