Does anyone one here make these?
In case it's a regional thing, I'm after a 'mini' crook as I'm on some new crazy pills and they seem to make me a bit wibbly. I hate the Idea off using a stick, but a market stick is a useful piece of kit that I can lean on if I need to!

If anyone does make them, or have one they want to sell, could you please get in touch?
Sale or barter, either or suits me. If barter have a think about what you would like in return

Thankies

(on the plus side, the new 5-htp pills are fantastic! Natural and I can really feel the benefit already after only a few days. If you have head issues, google it! )

I found a brilliant one in the forest but dare not lean on it in case its not strong enough but it is good for pocking things !!! I did have a walking pole but I get arthritis in my hands and cramp if I hold anything too long  I mean for any length of time    Interesting that my tablets for Arthritis in my spine made me very depressed and that's not a normal thing for me, gave them up and all is great now on strong pain killers..depression is horrid so I do sympathise, thankfully not a sufferer other than when I took the medication!!!!

Hi Colliewoman
 Are any of these any good to you? I really won't be offended if there not . I made them last year in my stick classes. I would love to barter for chickens or ducks (if you have any) but the distance makes that impractical. So sorry to say I'm looking for £75 +postage each.


This one is Buffalo horn on chestnut shaft 551/2 inches high


This is Ram horn on Ash shaft 4ft high ( the purple blob  on the shaft is a butterfly)


This one is African rosewood on chestnut shaft 56 inches high

If they are to high you can cut bits off the bottom. The first two I ever made I cut over a foot off the end of them so my grandparents could use them as proper walking sticks. 

[colliewoman]

Oh my!
I LOVE the one with the butterfly!
Could you hang on for a few days til I check what is spendable at the mo?
Shame you are so far away as I am knee deep in chickens!

[Bert]

No problem at all. you have first refusal, take as long as you like
