Second Star Trek Hiking Stick

Just a fun fan art piece for Star Trek. I wasn’t sure what to make with this piece since it’s relatively thin thus making it harder to display something with any detail, but eventually I landed on a Star Trek combadge and colored bands representing the different areas of expertise onboard a starship. The iconic words “To Boldly Go” are also wood burned onto the side. It’s made of sumac wood, stands at 57 inches, and has a coat of sealant to protect the ink and a coating of boiled linseed oil to protect the wood.

Star Trek Federation Combadge Hiking Stick

I’ve always enjoyed sci-fi, but it’s only been within the last few years that I actually sat down to watch all of the various Trek shows – though I still have to watch most of the movies. Between that and the constant Trek memes appearing on my timeline I felt inspired to make a set of three themed staves.

This staff shows the emblematic combadge from Star Trek’s Starfleet with colored yarn displaying the colors of crew uniforms. On the opposite side quotes the famous intro line from both the original series and Next Generation “To Boldly Go.” The image and lettering were created with wood burning and paint pens. The staff itself stands at roughly 52″ tall, is made of sumac wood which is both lightweight and sturdy, and has a coating of acrylic sealer and boiled linseed oil to protect both the image and wood.
