Here is the letter John sent with the CD which had 43 full-size
photos on it:
The shaft end will be slightly too big to fit into the 7/8 inch
hole in the handle,so, using a sanding block with 50 grit
abrasive, round the end to make a perfect tight fit.
When satisfied with fit, mark the handle and shaft to line up
the cane for best balance. Insert the shaft and make a mark
for depth for when you glue the pieces.
Here are the photos John provided; NOTE that I had to make them
a lot smaller and also had to REDUCE the quality of them so that
you would not have to wait until the cows came home before this
page would be loaded.
* Later, John said "The purpose of fliling the holesaw hole with
threaded steel is simply to reinforce the joint between handle
and shaft. It could also be filled with a wood dowel."

Ken, I use rubber furniture tips for cane ends. They are
inexpensive, last as long as more expensive cane tips, and
are easily replaced at almost any hardware store. The tip
can be removed to adjust the length of the cane. And, they
are available in many sizes; I find 7/8 inch to be the most
popular diameter for my uses.
P.S. Here is the wood template John included for the handle; his
is 6 1/8 inch from tip to tip.
So, with that in mind, I'll offer a piece of birch in SOME of the
packages of Diamond Willow, 36-inch cane sticks I'll offer at
