A one day course in the basic skills involved in making your own sticks. No experience needed but a willingness and ability to use hand tools is essential.

Most of the people who come have never made a stick before, but everyone goes home with a complete stick they have made! Anyone with a bit of stick-making knowledge who would like to improve and learn some new tricks is also welcome.

Everyone who attends learns how to straighten a stick, make a steel rod/pin to join the handle to the shank and use simple tools to carve and shape the handle and shank to a finished stage.

You will need to wear suitable clothing and footwear for working outdoors in this season. Steel toe cap boots would be advantageous if you have them.
