Hi all, I’ve been away for pipe making for a little more than a year, but I recently jumped back in to make this pipe for a friend, and I’m looking forward to making more pipes in the near future. I would like to get some feedback on this pipe, but first I will provide my self-critique. The pipe has...

Thank you all for your comments and help. I will put your suggestions into practice for both my next billiard as well as all my other future pipes. I have been working on a bent brandy and your suggestions about shaping the shank/stem junction have helped immensely.

Hey y'all, I'm brand new to both this forum and to pipemaking. I've made two pipes so far from Vermont Freehand pipe kits. My first was a bent billiard, which I have not posted for critique but possibly will in the future. You can see my second one below. It was inspired by the shape of Ancient Gree...
