This is my 4th pipe i made using my last briar (Pimo briar) which i don't like but turned out all right. I ordered better briar this time-Trial and error
If thiere is anything you see that you think i need to work on please let me know.
Well i must say, i do like that pipe. Imo it came out just fine. One question though, where do you guys keep getting these stems with gold, silver or dimond dots on them???
Not bad for a 4th pipe. A couple things I see that could be improved: 1) cant your bowl/tobacco chamber a couple degrees away from the bit. You shouldn't have a 90 degree angle here because it give the illusion that the bowl is pointing towards the smoker. 2) The shank bowl junction is cut a bit too sharp/too defined. It makes it look like the shank and bowl are two seperate parts and disrupts the visual flow of the piece. This area of the pipe is where many struggle. There is a sweet spot in the shaping of this area and with experience you learn to know it instinctively when you get there.
