    segmented diamondback rattlesnake

    This one is definetly different for me. Measures almost five feet long. Body of Cherry and the diamonds are Walnut, Holly, and Bloodwood. It contains five different turnings two of which were turned off center. Antique oil finish.



    865 miles southeast of Steve Schlumpf.

    Looks good Mike but if I saw it in your shop we would be talking outside.

    Mike

    That is neat, but Ted asked the best question, Why? What's the inspiration here?

    I could see these selling very well at craft and art shows. Something different. Could be your look, gimic, hook ... Mike the Wood Snake Guy.

    Well Mike 'the Wood Snake Guy' - I gotta tell you that is one nice looking cane! I think Frank is right in that these would sell really well at art shows just because there is nothing else out there like it! Very nice work!

    Mike, I love it! You're going to have to share some info on this one. My wife is a critter nut! As soon as I show her this, I will have my marching orders.
