Old Salt,
  I have since signing on ,have made a number of projects,and have a considerable number made before and others have evinced a desire to see my work[Beowulf].I am working on getting a camera again as I am as eager to show my work off as you are to see it,I am particularly proud of my club as it was my first and came out real nice.I will ,I hope soon ,be able to satisfy my urge to show off as well as satisfy others urge to see, what I hope will be, at least nice to view.Thank you for your interest

I understand you situation. we will wait until you can get the camera.
The only reason I said any thing that I will say I send pictures and then
get busy and for get to send them, did not mean to rush you.

To Native Americans it was a war club. Sure and I do believe that the Irish called it a Shillelagh Nice work - No matter what you call it!

–noun (esp. in Ireland)
a cudgel, traditionally of blackthorn or oak.

Origin:
1670–80; < Irish Síol Éiligh  town in Co. Wicklow; the adjoining forest provided wood for the clubs 

1772, "cudgel," earlier, "oak wood used to make cudgels" (1677), from Shillelagh,  town and barony in Co. Wicklow, Ireland, famous for its oaks.
