they were selling them last year (year b4?) at the Woodsman museum in Boiestown. Cheaply priced too. pole only no fitting on the bottom to protect it.
The stuff I used is pretty effective at protecting the tip if you find you need something.

Scott Corbett, 455-9750. Spruce.
I got the end of my pole caught between rocks, and the bottom six inches with the shoe snapped off. I still use it.

15 years ago I bought poles for a lodge I worked at from two places in Maine: Shaw & Tenney in Orono www.shawandtenney.com/classic-wooden-paddles.htm, and Peavey Manufacturing Co. in Eddington (on Route 9, on the right-hand-side before you get to Brewer/Bangor. www.peaveymfg.com/woodpoles.htmI just checked online. S&T website still lists spruce setting poles. I bought their larger diameter pole at S&T (but I wouldn't recommend it - too large around for a comfortable grip). I think the smaller diameter would be better. I recall a really good price at The Peavey Co. But I don't think Peavey sold (then or now) a setting pole per-se. Looking at their website, I think what I bought was an ash pole (with no fittings) that they call a one-piece pruning pole (U$15.); and put a metal band on myself to reduce splitting. David W. |
