shiat, thats really nice to hear!
but may i say, the reason it appeals to you is probably the fact that it´s rusticated, not blasted.

this is well considered, comments are very welcome! http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/5297/img9368s.th.jpg http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/8736/img9367q.th.jpg http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/3060/img9369e.th.jpg http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/6950/img9371c.th.jpg http://img684.imageshack...

you made really laugh my ass of.

yep, holy shit.
makes me wonder how much treasures there are in the world yet to be found.

Hello, thanks for the answers! i have read them more than twice and been thinking of them. sas, the purple arrow i get, but the blue one, i couldnt make it straight, ill try to get a better picture that will show that the shape is considered. i was thinking that maybe, the edges of the panels should...

looks nice to me, and props for not filling those pits, they are beautyspots. you could try usin delrin for tenons if you havent already tried/used them that material is really hard to break. id try to replace that tenon with a new one before making a totally new stem. i hope i brought up something ...

hello felix and Owl! thankyou for your interest and kind comments, I don´t find it difficult to smoke as i´ve practised to pack a bowl so that it can be smoked upside down;D (it rained a lot back then) it smokes well thankyou. it´s jaumehoms briar, not the most expensive but ivé had no reason so far...

hello! its been a while, and i´ve gotten a room to work with my pipes and other wood-related stuff. and a drill! yes! here are two pictures from the room. http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/9016/img9204f.th.jpg http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/7960/img9205t.th.jpg well anyway to the pipes. this is...

marwellous work, i´ve been off the forums for a while but i´ve been watching updates.
this finishing style is just unbeliavable.

hello!
damn beautifull again,
did you use opague to stain them?

Hello! It´s been a while since my last post. Ive been having trouble with my right hand not functioning properly, for somewhat a moth now. as i start carving, sanding or filing my fingers go numb in five minutes, sometimes the whole hand. well anyway, the first three pipes are the latest ones, the s...

looks like you have made a symmetric bowl, congrats!
i didn´t get a good look of the stem, but at least its well polished.
i like the color.

the shape is a 10!
i like it a lot.

hello,
you said that it´s your biggest problem, that you are still working on, thats enough.
don´t feel bad, ill try to think an way to make it easier to get it symmetric for you.

wow, that makes really sense, and i didn´t realize all the possible precautions. I quess i "stamped" myself anyway. t3p, i´m sorry if my post offended you, but i really thought or still think that you must have rushed with the pipe. I have done the same many times and once in a while I sti...

a better question would be,
has anyone wrecognized any kind of affects that wisible sandpits would have to the pipes smoking abilities?

hello, i recieved t3p´s pipe yesterday and i´m really confused how i should "proceed". if i give the pipe a proper critique, i´ll be stamped "asshole". It´s easier to me to believe, that you rushed with the pipe wanting to be the first to finish the "pitch pipe", and th...
