Thanks a lot for pics. and info!
Thinking of converting my regular disksander into one of these.
Are there many advantages working with the paper bent over the edge?

Found some usefull information on: http://www.pfeifenbox.de/articles/2004_en/soapy_en.htm But maybe that the process used isn't quiet the right way to do it Or are there no limits? Just make your own brew? I aim to get a mild Aromatic smoker. And I have a pack of Semois tobacco at home,But to tell y...

True true, Semois it must be! I didn't know it was known at all. The cabine that I mentioned in my previous post is just 100 meters away from the Semois-river. The tobaccoplant was given to me by a friend who took some plants from the semois'-region' some years ago. Do you have any clue if it's a st...

Hi Pierre, Thanks for your speedy respons. An for figuring out what kindda tobacco I have here. I would be happy to send you some seeds of the "Little Dutch" tobacco. I am gonna be more serious towards the plant in my garden. But I would like to ask you a few questions more. How to recogni...

Hello pierredekat, First of all thanks very much to give a serious insight in tobaccogrowing. I live in Belgium and in the french speaking part of my country it was all tobacco the farmers planted over there,but all this was a honderd years ago. Today there's not much left any more exept the tobacco...

But I hope to get a answer to my following questions Can you tell me if there's somthing to keep in mind before shaping it into pipes,hopefully. Can I just start ch...

Hi Kurt, These are some nice looking pipes you have made. I specially like the,Dublin/Poker,with the most beautifull birdseyes I ever saw. Whoow,respect! Can I ask what the yellowish material is you used on the 'Bumblefish'? And does it have a millitary mouthpiece or a regular one? Kind regards Frank

Very nice pipe,Kurt!

Is the white piece,also acrylics or is it like ivory?
Can you tell me how you accentuated the grain so beuatifull
Do you use stains,and what colour should it be to get this good result

Big up

Thanks Ben

Frank

Think I am gonna stick with the half bent Dublin,or maybe a horn
so many shapes but these ones are appealing to me
