bull egg

a pipe for outside.. the adventurer, the climber, the traveller...

[JonBood]

Outstanding!

Did you sandblast it or use some kind of metal brush to get that nice finish?

[jogilli]

thanks.. I wish I had a sandblaster, as it would have been a perfect pipe to sandblast.. ended up just spending a lot of time working w/the grain

Well, you did a great job!

[Ocelot55]

James, I don't know why, but I think that is my favorite pipe of yours to date. Everything just seems to fit. When I look at the pipe I don't see any individual components, just one, well crafted, smoking implement. Absolutely spectacular job.

I assume this one is going to Lohmar as well? I'm fighting really hard not to make you on offer on this one.

[jogilli]

Thanks...yea it's more than likely going with...might even come back

Sounds like a very polite way of saying "I'm not tellin' " I'm in sales, I know question deflection when I see it.

Cool pipe. I've been considering making something similar for a friend of mine who is that camper type. I think this look definitely has it's place.

Bulls don't lay eggs, stupid. Only cows do.

I like the pipe.
Hope this helps.

enjoy sas

How about Rocky Mountain Oyster pipe?

[wdteipen]

I'm with Ocelot; I think that's my favorite of yours so far. I really like the rustication. It really does look like a light sandblast. Nice work, James.

[bregolad]

nailed it. no further comments necessary.

[d.huber]

That. Is. Awesome. The way you described it has me reaching for my pocket book. Seriously, let me know if you want to sell it pre-show and your price.

[Sasquatch]

It is an excellent pipe.


Is that the french yellow/black ebonite, James?

[jogilli]

Sas

its the briar swirl from SEM... the last piece I had from that swirl.. I like it personally, but personally doesn't get sold all the time..
