4. The Head.
Copyright 1999 Evertjan 't Hart
Use a small triangle file to go trough the bark of the cane.
Cut the slip in two as straight as possible.
Nice isn't it?
Tie the two halves together -firm but gently- with waxed dental floss or something like that. Up to the half of the head.
Make sure it's aligned on all sides.
Use a pencil to mark the 30 mm line on both sides of the head.
Round off the shoulders in 5 strokes.
Chamfer the tails from the 30 mm line on the sides.
The head is now ready to be tied to the staple.
