I played around in my workshop with no proper tools

Post by smokepiper »

My old workshop have a lathe that makes very bad drillings off center so i have to mount drill to lathechuck and drill pipe in hand. But, i really needed a new smoker so i started to make a pipe, been away for more than 6 months so i didn´t have any high hopes of the shape. I didn´t even do the finish work just rough shaped and same with the stem, no shiny finish here. But i am surpriced by the outcome, regret my lack of ambition of doing it the right way. Image

Interesting shape. Looks like it came out OK.

Where have you been hiding all these months, Ronny?
Regards,
Frank.

Thx!! It smokes like a dream, cool and dry. The shape is similar to Bo´s cracked pipe but i don´t use extention so i had to make the pipe a bit stubby to make the stem fit better to the shape. I have been doing absolute nothing for very long time and i guess i got a bit under the ice and not up to do anything when i haven´t got the workshop in order. Now it´s springtime and who can resist the energybuff of mother Nature? i know i got a kick in the .... and want to connect with people again. :wink:
