Is it possible and/or strong enough to create a full walking cane casted from epoxy resin?

Rican,
I would have to say no on the full walking cane. I have over the years had people try it and the results after many test were not safe enough all the time. I have seen some beautiful cane handles, but not the full cane.
Warmest Regards,
Carol

It’s possible to get carbon fibre canes, so I guess if you could reinforce the cast somehow it would work?

I don't know I haven't tested it personally, I can only go by what others have said who have done test and tried it. I was told that it is just not strong enough in and of itself (they didn't mention if they used any reinforcement or fillers). I do not know with a fiber glass or carbon filler, I still would think perhaps test would need to be performed especially to sell them, Greyarea.
Happy Holidays.
Regards,
Carol
