How to make wizard staffs and walking sticks differences

   What's the difference between making a walking staff, Wizard stick or septor? The actual way you work the wood is not different at all. The designs are different and what you do with the walking stick or wizard staff once its made. I do not know all the details about wizard stick magical properties and so forth. I know its base on the fact that wood is a living thing and even when cut it still holds some properties according to wizards. Beyond that the techniques to make a wizard staff and walking stick are the same. You put designs on the woods, wood burn images and even carve figures. if you are into wizard staffs please post some information here to inform other bloggers.

    Yes, even how you inlay stones, crystals and other objects are the same. There are several ways to inlay objects into the ends and sizes of walking sticks and staffs. Recently, I finished several wizard wands for some friends which I inlayed quartz crystals on the end and wired wrapped portions of the wand with copper wire. they turned out great. I used the same techniques as described in the how to make walking sticks and staff guides.

Wire wrapping adds  uniqueness to any walking stick making project. You can combine it with walking stick carvings, wood burning images and even rope work. Again, making magic wands, wizard sticks and other similar projects all use the same techniques. So branch out you walking stick making and try making a magic wand for your children or as a gift.
