Hey folks.

I've a cousin who has to use a cane to get around and he is the kind of
person you just like to help. I have been considering making a cane for
him, but I am limited by my lathe. If I make him a cane, it will need to
be a 2 piece cane. I've considered using something like is used to put a 2
piece que stick together. The problem I've run into is I can't find a
source for this.

For anyone out there who has made a cane or walking stick, how did you
manage it and do you have a supplier for some means of screwing the 2
pieces together? I've some nice pieces of walnut and maple selected for
making his new cane and I'm anxious to get it done. Any help would be
appreciated.
