Thanks, Marius. Pat, I haven't gotten 'em completely matched yet, we'll see how it goes. The dogwood ones are already traded, they're in the care of the USPS at the moment.  BTW, do the leaves on your patch of cane turn brown or drop in the winter?

Yes Steve. All of the leaves turn brown(tan) and most fall off. It does make it easier to see the good canes while gathering them as I'm usually on my hands and knees crawling through the patch.   Pat

That's what I was wondering. I knew your cane was different from the typical stuff-if it's deciduous, it's A. appalachiana, hill cane. It doesn't usually get that big. I gotta snarf me another clump or two next year.  >:D

Thanks again, guys. Jawge, if/when I ever get any of my stuff up to the caliber of yours, I'll be a happy hillbilly.  :)

Hillbilly, I just started trying to do the same. Are you using a jig to hold the shafts while planing etc? Awesome shafts! Thanks, Tracy

Thanks, Alan. Tracy, I use my knee.  :) One of these days when I'm not lazy I'll make me one of those little fancy boards with a v-groove in it. If the shaft is really big, I'll lay it on the workbench and plane some of the overall size down before sizing it.
