Like horn? Can you post a link to some photos of the sort of thing you mean?

I'm thinking of offering something along the lines of the following:

Military mounts
Making your own military mount cutting bit
Using a DRO on a lathe
Bamboo shanks

Something else?

Thoughts?

An agenda is slowly coming together for the weekend -- we're getting close! Let me quickly say that things are loose and casual. This is more a meeting of friends than a formal event. That said, here are some of the plans in no particular order: Finishing smooths -- Premal Laser engravers -- Charles...

Maybe

What lessons from the first pipes did you apply to these?

Japanese--that's your problem.

Whooo boy, the benefits of being, "famous among pipe makers who are online," (according to the aforementioned P&T issue, in the article about Grant) is such an amazing burden to carry. The bowing, the paparazzi, it's a lot.

In other news, everyone should come to my house next month.
