    I did it ... bought myself a dinky little Dremel today ... yes, money money money ... but it will be really great for doing the finishing off on stick handles ...

    Gorse is a pretty dense, heavy wood. But suppose most of your customers don't plan to use their canes for canings.

    Has anyone used Rose wood for a cane/stick? I have some good lengths from last years prunings that I put away thinking I could do something with them?
