EDIT AGAIN 4/17/13: OMG. How is this still this popular? I'm astounded. xD Anyways, making it portable didnt work. Plus, I realized within the last month that I made the hook waaay to big. Really wish i cut the pieces shorter...Anyways. If I remake it in a method I like better, I'll seriously be considering selling this one. So keep your eyes peeled. :)

EDIT1/28/13: When I go home. I think I'm going to try to find a way to make this portable. I love it as is, but. It's just not good for travel. :/ I have an idea. Just hope it works.


Okay, so this is my first tutorial I've ever made so I apologize if its not very good. ^^; I did my best to explain all my steps in detail and make it look nice. Let me know if words are too small or are spelled wrong or anything.

Just a warning with my version of the staff/shepard's hook though, it does have some weight to it since it is solid wood. (Honestly though, it feels really solid. It's not breaking anytime soon.)It seems that a lot of people have gone with pvc piping for theirs; but I felt like I wasn't going to be able to do what I needed to do with that. :/

Working with wood, plaster strips, and gorilla tape to make the actual structure was just my initial idea, so I went with that; and I am very happy I did. Came out just as I imagined it would, which is just such an awesome feeling. :)

Only problem is that its about 6ft tall due to my 5'10" height, FFFFF. Travel WILL be difficult. @__@



:bulletred:Just some general guidelines for if you use this tutorial:

-PLEASE credit me. That should be pretty straightforward. :/
-Fave the tutorial.
-And last but not least, please share your finished creations with me! I'd love to see!


Well, that's it. I hope this helps people. :D Happy sawing!

I can't wait to try to build this! Do you think that you could give me the proportions for the parts? I know that the shaft should come up to the neck, but how long should each of the pieces be in proportion to that?

Ummm, all i can really say is shorter than how I made them. ^^; I didn't realize until later that I made the hook waaaay to big. Eye-ball it and see what looks okay. I don't exactly have the staff with me right now so I can't make any measurements. Sorry!

Did you cut pieces off the 6 ft. wooden dowel rod to form the "G" shape?
Or did you use other smaller wooden dowel rods?

I bought a 3 ft rod with a slightly smaller diameter and cut that up. :)
