Denny Bell
Pleasant Prairie, Wis.
After seeing the work of Mike Stinnett on
YouTube, Denny was inspired to overcome his
fear of rattlesnakes and carve a massasauga
rattlesnake stick of his own. He used a
drawknife to strip the bark, a chainsaw to
cut the basic shape, a gouge and mallet to
remove waste between the wraps of the
snake, and gouges and knives to carve the

details. Denny then finished the cane
with a woodburner, paint, and teak oil.

Frank Shaffer
Atwater, Ohio
“No two pumpkin stems are the same, so
you always get something different,” said
Frank. First, he dries the pumpkin stems
for as long as he is able. After carving
the stems, he applies a coat of linseed oil
before painting them with acrylic paints.
