I used buckey and they did a great job. It was a 2-3 week wait though.

If anyone is still looking for a table to split I have one that will still have plenty of space :/

I like it! Very sleek and classy. How far into the shank does the SS go?

I will be down there Friday afternoon till Saturday evening.

Todd, I have a table in the hallway if your still in need. Tables in the ballroom sold out fairly quick this year actually :/

Use a hand held wire brush with stiff bristles. Give her hell and then clean off anything you leave behind with a pick, or if you have a thin metal flex rule, you can use the corner of it to get under the bark and pick it off. Then stain it black, hit it with a thin coat of shellac if that's you're ...

Don't listen to them Ian. These two gentlemen, while excellent pipe carvers, are completely mistaken concerning where briar of that nature originates. Most of the tomes I've consulted tell me that a most complicated summoning ritual is involved, for you see, briar that nice cannot be grown, it must...

I couldn't have said it better myself, George. There are few people in the world so honest, genuine, and helpful as Mr. Beard. Tyler is like the Godfather of American pipe carvers! :thumbsup: +1 and beyond! Thank You Tyler Beard for you passion, inspiration, selflessness, and time put into this hob...

The list really is too long. I actually listen to everything from classical to death metal. I choose wisely though. Only the best of the best. I listen to a lot of Pink Floyd, Zepplin, Sabbath, Clutch, Tool, some Brit rock like Graveyard, witchcraft, and every now and then I'll even listen to 80s ea...

SLAYER!!!

I would like to comment on the pipe I received from Premal Chheda. It is a magnificent pipe. The drilling is spot on, the finish is nothing short of amazing. The tenon is very snug but is not of concern because it's a larger delrin tenon and is very durable. The mortise, end of the shank, as well as...

I will get mine sent out by the end of the week. I apologize for sending later than I originally said. I had a very ugly family emergency and haven't even been to work in over a week.

Oh daaaamn! Nice! I might need a retainer to wear with this BEAST of a pipe! LOL can't wait, this will shed some light on me this week as my family is going through a very difficult time at the moment. Thank you Premal

Oh man! I'm soooo excited! I can't wait to see what Premal puts together

Wow! That is far out man I love it!

BOOOOO!

I'm ok with an extension since we are still waiting for Wayne, Micha, and Premal to finish I still have to coate the bowl on mine also

When I can afford to, I am changing my stamp as well. I started off just engraving B&B and the number of the pipe. I did that for the first ten pipes. I didn't want mine to get confused with other brands such as Briar Bird, BnB tobacconist, BBB , and a few others. Now I have a fancy lettered and...

It looks much better Scottie!

Thanks Sas, I appreciate your thought on this. It is a hard shape to nail. Am I correct in thinking that I should shape a ball first then flatten the backside line from about from about 3/4 up?
