Latest walking stick made from Ash and Epoxy. Found this branch with a root ball during a walk through the woods and thought it would make a beautiful hiking stick. Filled in the cracks with a tinted (drop of acrylic paint) epoxy and sanded smooth. Finished the stick with a paracord handle wrap and 2 coats of Watco Teak oil. Fantastic finish and feels great to the touch. The base has a copper ring to protect the base. Hope you enjoy the process.
