Had a few hours here and there to finish pipes I'd started weeks ago:
This is the first pipe I've done in awhile that I just hate. I'm annoyed about the red band, annoyed about the proportions... I just don't like it very much. I feel like I should have got more out of this piece of briar.
This one I'm happier with - kind of borrowed the shape from Downie I guess.
And back in my comfort zone - extra large, lumpy, and dark purple. Yeah baby!
My week

Sheesh... Are you ever happy with your pipes
Be careful or you will talk yourself out of makin any and we will have to fill the gap

Re: My week
I will gladly trade you one of my "hack " pipes for one of yours causing dissatisfaction any day.

Re: My week
I agree that the first one is just horrible, so I'm going to make a one-time offer just because I'm in a good mood today.
Send it to me and I will make sure that you, your friends and family never have to look at it again.
