The Harley
Walking Stick No. 0006
Sometimes just referred to as Fat Boy Its a big fat walking stick. It would suit a big fat man. My brother rides a Harley Davidson motorcycle and when I as working this stick it evoked the images of that big fat tyre seen on Harley motorcycle model The Fat Boy.
So slapped the Harley Badge on the stick and christened it "Harley " with a glass of my home distilled whiskey.
The Fat Boy is one of Harley-Davidson's best selling models and has appeared prominently in a number of TV shows and movies. The Fat Boy earned a place in American pop culture after appearances in the movie Terminator 2: Judgment Day. One of the motorcycles used in Terminator 2 is displayed at the Harley-Davidson Museum.
There is two sides to this fat boys personality.
On this side he has a large diamond eye. A glass eye. which gives it an organic sea horsey look.
Fantastic stick I think it has multiple personalities and so much could be done with this one.
It's a beautiful bit of timber . If I remember correctly it was a bloodwood tree. Latin name Corymbia bleeseri Was one of the first sticks I collected. An area of bush land had been cleared for a new road and there washes amazing crooked branch waiting to be rescued. Beautiful. bit bulky but wonderful walking stick
