Thank you very much for your answers.

Good afternoon guys, I would like to ask you for some help if possible. I am using a Drill Press and the Pimo Countersinking tool and when i countersink the mortise i cannot get a smooth finish on the edges of the mortise. The surface appears all dented. What could be the problem? Could i be using a...

Good afternoon guys, This time i tried a fat poker shape. The drilling is a bit of center and the colour of the wood is a bit lighter on the top of the bowl so i decided to keep this one to myself. http://imageshack.us/a/img834/5050/20121007133431.jpg http://imageshack.us/a/img832/7544/2012100713345...

Thank you very much with your help guys!

First of all thank you for your answers. I would not get that one. You're going to be much happier getting something like this, along with a bench press vise. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sealey-SDM30-Pillar-5-Speed-Height/dp/B000RA14FS/ref=sr_1_4?s=diy&ie=UTF8&qid=1349194503&sr=1-4 But isn't...

Simply GORGEOUS pipes!

Congratulations!

Good evening! I am not having the spare time i wanted and so it took me a while to finish this piece. For this pipe i decided to go for a Barrel form. It is my first humble approach to this form. The briar is from my new supplier in Italy. It has some nice grain and i am happy with it. http://img39....

Good afternoon, I have been very short on time but i managed to finish this one yesterday. http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/9404/76519067.jpg http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/7633/91363975.jpg http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/6831/65635547.jpg http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/9930/83121934.jpg h...

Beautiful Poker!

Hola Felix!

Great pipe. I love the grain pattern.

Thanks guys!

We have a couple of good stores here in Lisbon where we can buy a good range of pipes and tobacco.

And there is always the Internet!

Good morning,

I found this pipe for sale here in Portugal and i would like some help identifying the brand / artisan.

On the top of the stem, just before the shank, i can see two round dots.



Thank you in advance.

Bruno

This pipe was made from a pre-bored block so i don't know what those footprints are.

I just shaped my first couple of pipes yesterday. Best piece of advice I can give you is to buy a 1"x30" belt sander. They're pretty cheap and I did ALL of my rough shaping with one and an 80 grit belt. They take hours off of the handwork and can give you great results. Just did so Edward...

Good afternoon, Here is my third pipe. For this one i tried a "natural" look with only a black base to highlight the grain. http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/3663/32598166.jpg http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/7489/26805070.jpg http://img856.imageshack.us/img856/5932/23231360.jpg http://img3...

Tks for the answers guys.

I stained it chocolate and sanded it back.

After that i applyed buckskin and the result is in my new post in the gallery.
