How to Make a Spliced Cane
by Ann Rismiller
ALL OF THE ABOVE CANES WERE MADE USING
THE SAME TECHNIQUE!!
(click any pic for a larger view)
You can do this technique with just about any two
canes (or try cutting just one cane in half).  I like
using two different Skinner Blends, one rolled
from light to dark and the other from dark to light.  
You could even try two totally different "junk"
canes.
If your cane is warm from all that
rolling, stick it in the freezer for
about 20 to 30 minutes.  Then
you're ready for the next step.

Now, stand each cane on end, and
cut from top to bottom.  Pull the
halves apart, then put very gently
back together so they don't stick,
and make another cut across the
first cut:
This is the Ecru - Crimson blend
with the cuts made.
Take your first cane (the one
that you want to be the
outside
color), and lay the quarters next
to each other like this:
