Dennis's - Unfinished Wood / Walking Stick Blanks
|
 |
Dennis with his favorite saw and a few prized sticks.
|
My name is Dennis and I live along Crowley's Ridge in Eastern Arkansas. My main occupation is Mathematics Professor at a small community college. However, I love woodworking, plants, hiking, and in particular, trees. I have studied Biology and Botany while in college and have an immense enjoyment for anything outdoors.
My sticks are all hand selected and cut by me specifically for you to make walking sticks. Because of my interests, I have developed a keen eye for the many different types of trees that grow in the area and will rarely make a mistake in tree sapling identification. As you might suspect, identifying saplings is more difficult than identifying full grown trees. As a general rule, I collect understory trees, and trees along edges of farmers fields. I have about five different plots of land where I search for walking stick blanks. Two of these plots are owned by my family and the other three are owned by farmers who graciously allow me access to their property.
Most of these farmers are fellow Christians from my church and know me and my family well. The money that I earn from selling sticks on ebay goes towards my daughters tuition. My daughter is a music major at a private Christian school in Missouri.

Pricing: This is a difficult topic to address. However, based on the demand for sticks and my ability to keep up with that demand, I usually price most sticks from $10 to $15. Sometimes I find pieces that are unusual and will price them at higher prices. If you think about the time spent "stick hunting", the gas for your automobile, the availability of saplings, ticks, chiggers, summer heat, winter cold, deer and wild game hunters, ... you will probably agree that my prices are not too high.
On the other hand if you are reasonably healthy, handy with a saw, and have access to private land you can cut your own walking stick blanks. Generally land owners will allow you to cut a sapling or two from their land. New subdivisions are good places to find saplings if you can get in before the bull dozer clears the land.
