Darning Egg Cane

[bikerdoc]

Here is another I just finished.

Took an old oval darning egg, 2" wide, 3" long
Fitted it to an an inch and an quarter oak shaft ( 3/4 inch hole in egg, 3/4 inch turndown on shaft) pinned with filled counter sink.
Then sanded, light stain. and poly.

Very comfortable! (And comforting)

Very cool!

"Darn" nice design. This should egg others on in a similar thread to provide some yarns about their cane making.

Yeah, but you can't pull the wool over our eyes.
We're just too quick to cotton on.

Good idea for the handle.
People could easily customise the egg for themselves.

Nice cane.

LOL, Some hard boiled comedy, undoubtably poached from the comedy channel. Now I got to clean up the coffee that is scrambled all over my workbench/desk.

Do not give up your day job

Why this made me LOL, I have no idea. Maybe my brain is just fried.

(see how I worked in my own egg pun there? Genius.)

It's a yolk, son, a yolk. Always cracks me up, but then I'm just a shell of my former self.
