spiral canes for charity

[Michelle Rich]

not very fancy, but the folks who need them, are very happy to have them. I'd never carved an eagle ( or anything else !) so this was a first rustic fun carving!

[Harvey Ghesser]

Very nice, Michelle. I'm sure those who receive them will be most thankful for your kindness.

[John Keeton]

Well done, and a very compassionate gift!

[Dan Forman]

Very thoughtful of you. How thick were the blanks? Is there a group that is distributing these? Are you connected with a hospital in some way?

That is cool Michelle! Do you have a Legacy or another cool method for getting the spiral? To save you some wear and tear, CSUSA makes really neat looking handles, almost as cool as yours!

[Baxter Smith]

Very nicely done Michele. They are almost as pretty as that cabinet door!;)

[Ken Glass]

Michelle,
Very nice canes indeed. If I keep taking headers on he stairs like today, I may need one sooner than later. Only my pride was hurt, but I must be getting to be a clutz......

[Donny Lawson]

Those are some neat looking canes. How was the spiral part turned?

[Steve Schlumpf]

Very nice work Michelle! I am sure they will be very appreciated!

Hi Dan: no , no group. I start with about 1-1/4 and go from there. I can't afford super wood for these, so i use cherry, walnut & maple. I take these to nursing homes/rehabs. Folks like these because they aren't metal. they feel warm & remind them of non-hospital stuff. Plus I try to make each different, so folks have something just for them

[Michelle Rich]

ah, Baxter..so you saw that cabinet eh? Birdseye & curly maple pantry ..rather shaker in style. It's one of my favorite pieces of furniture

[David E Keller]

Kudos on another great gesture... You're definitely in the lead for 'Kind Creeker of the Year'!

[Bill Wyko]

Very thoughtful and the spiral is a wonderful touch. I like the cabinet behind them too.
