I mentioned to some folks to jump to the end of the stream, at that time page 6 and 7, and they would get a better idea of what was going on, and why. whether...

Re: Machined pipes.New Factory in Nashville.

I am going to quote what I wrote to the admin/mods to explain why I, not a pipe carver, wanted to post on the site, and see if it rings any chimes: Guys, let me clear the air first of all... I am NOT a pipemaker. I wanted to comment on one thread, which I became aware of from it being linked over at...
