This walking stick was our penultimate project in 3D Design. We brought a 2&#215;4 to class and then, after being shown most of the tools in the wood shop, we were told to work on that 2&#215;4 until it was a walking stick. Many people&#8217;s sticks were all naturalistic and such &#8212; carved leaves and vines and so on. One very unusual one was a bright multi-colored syringe full of candy. Another very cool one was a sharpened stick with 3 carved fishes on it, as for a barbecue. Mine looks like a piece of furniture. I had fun on it, though.<\/p>\n<p>I ripped my 2&#215;4 into two 2&#215;2&#8217;s so it would be square, then mitered the corners of square on the table saw. The knob at the top is 2 2&#215;4&#8217;s glued together and then ground into a squared globe and doweled into the 2&#215;2. Each section is a different experiment with the grinder or the drill or the Dremel or the band saw or the sander, or some combination of those.<\/p>\n<p>I enjoyed the finish work: the rough sanding, the finer and finer hand sanding, the painting (cheap acrylic paints in the scrapbook aisle at Target) and the ebony stain over top that.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">It&#8217;s a big image, but you&#8217;ve got to click on the thumbnail to see it properly.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I haven&#8217;t been posting anything from my classes because I&#8217;ve been working on them right up until the due date, and once I turned them in they were in the classroom until the semester ended.
