If I remember correctly, the wood is willow.. not diamond willow.. just plain willow. A guy from CO I think sold them to Trudy Ginest - and I in turn purchased a few from her. They were debarked.. and I think we paid $15 a stick. Trudy can tell you for sure.. it was several years ago .. when I was stock piling my someday projects.

Thank you for the kind comments on my carvings.
I very much enjoyed looking at the pictures of your carvings. Of particular interest was your walking sticks. What wood did you use?

Stay warm as it seems Al Gore is not sharing the global warming with the rest of us.

Thank you for your kind comments... It is a struggle some days to get the result one wants.
Looking at your photo gallery I am very impressed with the size of your projects (as well as the quality). How do you get such detail in such a small piece? My old mentor that taught me to carve always said a larger project is more forgiving - a small mistake is not nearly as bad on a large piece as a small one.
Hi, Nancy...I just added my 21" diameter Chief Illiniwek...Not a real good picture. I just looked at your photos. Very nice! I would like to be your friend but can't figure out how to do that.
