Re: Bulldog no. 1
So I usually check out what Chance has listed once a week or so, and I just seen this. It is somewhat similar too what I made. I knew that mine was not new and innovative, but thought I'd be a bit more rare. LoL perfect example of nothing new under the sun. http://m.ebay.com/itm/VERY-MINT-PH-VIGEN-B...

Re: Bulldog no. 1
Thanks for all of your input and compliments. I am working on a true bulldog and a Rhodesian now and then I'll probably revisit this "Horndog" shape to see if I can improve it.

Re: One at a time or multi task
In my experiences, it seems better to start several. I get several drawn up, lay out of drilling on the blocks, and start drilling. It doesn't hurt to drill them and let them sit for awhile. I suggest stabilize your mortise. Then I start cutting stem stock and getting the stem stock fitted to the st...

Re: Bulldog no. 1
Hmmm...drilled like a horn, shaped like a bulldog. What to call this shape? Seriously though, I really like it. Plenty of forward motion and sharp lines flowing graciously into that stacked bowl. Kind of a Danish modern feel, and compositional very well balanced. Finish complements the shape nicely...

Re: Bulldog no. 1
Thanks guys, it's definitely a shape I will be revisiting many times soon. I really like it and want to develop it quite a bit more. I really like the bulldog shape and I think a lot can be done with it, in just small subtle changes, it can make a huge difference.

Re: Bulldog no. 1
I am not qualified to review this beautiful pipe, so my critique is, I hope, more of a conversation starter. To my eye, there is a small indentation about 1/3 of the way down the back of the bowl. It seems to me that this is where the top of the bowl should be, such that the rings are nearer the to...

Re: Bulldog no. 1
Execution and fit and finish are pretty nice on this one. Design-wise it's a bit odd but not entirely unpleasing. You've made a straight bulldog that gives the illusion that it's bent. The reason is because your shank exits the bowl so low. I agree that a slight bent in the stem would have better c...

Bulldog no. 1
Please critique the crap out of it! I will say this, it is my third attempt in two years and I know there should probably be a very subtle bend in the stem, but the person that bought it chose straight. Also I think I should have softened the bottom line that runs up the chin a little sooner. http:/...

Re: wood checking/cracking.
I have two nice 24"x 8"dia. Logs of spalted Box Elder wood. It had been down for three years, and when I started cutting it up into logs I found a nice section that was spalted. I then brushed them off, and put them in my shop to dry out slowly as logs for the last year. This spring I plan...

Re: We've been making video's about pipemaking.
Hi Jared, I have to say I enjoy and look forward to your videos every Tuesday. I like the way you guys start it off socializing with the viewers by sharing what you're smoking, what pipe, and the complimentary beverage, and the quick review of them. The pipe making portion is informative and gives a...

Re: Sweet RAD Pipe on eBay!
I wish I had the time and money to go check this out, as it is located an hour away from me. If it really is an unsmoked RAD then it is totally worth it. I checked out this chicks other items and she sucks at photography worse than I do :P All of her pics look like she's using a fisheye lens or some...
