I'm in, Author is a shape I've been wanting to do so this will be great.

I would like to enter the PITH, but I think sign up ended on 1/29.

Actually I just rechecked and I don't know where I saw 1/29, but it's not there. I'll post up that I'm in.

Thanks Doc, glad you confirmed the 2 points I myself could see. I will try a rebend on the stem as well as a lil more button crease work, not quite shiny enough for me.

This one I did for smokindawg, got a set of jaws from him and he sent a FEW extra items along with them, This was also my first attempt at an acrylic stem. Maybe Steve will pop in on this one and give a review, as it's in his hands now. 20171230_223242.jpg 20180105_191446.jpg 20180105_191455.jpg 201...

Didn't really have a direction when I started this one, but turned out ok.

OK, 2 for 2 here, next one had a flaw too, not looking good for a hobby.

This was my very first pipe, from a kit from Steve at VF It had a flaw in the side of the bowl as can be seen in one of the pics, and therefore got rusticated, kinda. My stem/shank fit could have been a lot better but I did learn from that. 20171122_204835.jpg 20171122_204753.jpg 20171120_122141.jpg...
