Here is a large wizard staff with an overlapping joint in the middle to reduce shipping. It is a birch specimen that stands 70-3/4" when assembled with the included hardware. When broken down it will ship in a 40" long x 8" x 8" box. Currently it weighs four pounds and the shaft ranges in diameter from 1-3/8" up to 2-1/4". A few of the pics show it with a 3" round dog ball (not included) just to demonstrate it can hold an artifact if that's your vision. This was harvested and the bark was stripped with a drawknife, hence it has flat facets and tooling marks all over to give it a hand-hewn look. It has two bark covered scar on it and the roots have some bark inclusions between where they originate. This is not straight, the entire piece curves somewhat. This is a raw material for you to customize.(ufws339)
