    How did you make the holes to insert the threaded rod, if you don't mind telling me.

    I drill and tap on lathe before turning turn 2 and screw together and then clean up on lathe that way they stay on center.

    I have seen this U of M walking stick and the one he made with a Micigan State theme. They are both incredible! The picture does not do it justice. John was extremely creative with the use of the college insignias, slogans, win loss records, etc. it's one of those items you have to see to believe!!
