Ferrules, collars etc. When ordering ferrules it should be remembered that rubber ferrules will stretch and that metal ferrules should have the end of the stick tapered slightly, so always choose a ferrule slightly smaller than the diameter of your stick. |
||
|
|
Several sizes to fit most sticks. These are "bell" shaped with good grips on the base and a metal washer inside to stop the stick wearing through quickly. Type quantity for each size in the box then click "Add to Cart" button.

STEEL-TIPPED FERRULES (Brass with flat steel plate welded to brass base). BACK IN STOCK - BUT ONLY A FEW IN SOME SIZES!
Lacquered finish that gives them a grey/brown colour. This can be rubbed off with steel wool and metal polish to reveal bright brass. Taper the end of the stick to get a tight fit and secure with epoxy or pins - or use the traditional way of crimping the rim two or three times with a sharp nail and hammer. Diameter measured across
open end in sixteenths-of-an-inch, so No 8 = half inch, ALL SIZES ARE
APPROXIMATE! |

Engraving up to 30 characters costs only £10 (not including price of collar). The more characters you have, the smaller they need to be engraved to fit on the collar.
|
If you would like any of the metal collars that follow engraving for just £10 then enter your lettering in the box and click on "Engrave". MAKE SURE YOU ALSO ORDER A COLLAR!!! If ordering more than one collar but not all engraved, make sure you order the engraving here first then order the collar you want engraving - order any other collars AFTER the engraved one so we can tell from the order form which one is to be engraved. You might also like to put a note on the order form if you require a particular style. NB Engraving is done by hand-held tool. |

NEW! Solid
silver disc, 25 mm (1 inch) in diameter and 0.7 mm
thick, engraved with up to 18 characters (including
spaces)
|
Price £15.50 for the disc AND the engraving. The discs are obtained from a local engraver (who does the engraving) so it can take anything up to a week after you place the order before I get one. I press the disc into a shallow curved profile and drill two pin-holes for easier fitting on your own stick. The engraver normally chooses suitable lettering depending on the size and context but several styles of lettering are available on request. |

|
You can even cut these in half to make two thinner collars!
|
Beaded Collars (small rim at top and bottom) The internal diameter is approx. 21 mm, 23 mm or 25 mm. Due to increased world prices of copper and brass we have reluctantly had to increase our collar prices by a small amount.
For engraved collars see above

Glue these between the handle and
shank to make a very stylish and neat joint. The handle and
shank should sit inside the outer ring and butt up against
the internal flange for best fit. Suitable for threaded rod
or wooden peg joints. The central hole is approximately 15
mm wide so you might need to file it out a little to use
thicker pegs
Also useful for covering a brass screw jointThe 25 mm size fits perfectly! |
