Participants will be provided with a raw (with bark) diamond willow stick (dried and straightened). There will be a large selection for participants to choose from. Participants will learn how to remove the bark, carve out the diamonds, sand and finish their stick. You will be instructed on safe handling of knives, using dremel rotary tools and detail sanders and provided with two finishing products (tung oil and Wipe on Poly).
Greg has been conducting these diamond willow walking stick workshops for about 13 years and has always received very positive feedback from the participants. Recently one of the class participants wrote an article on Greg’s passion for working with diamond willow.
