Mr Bastard (may I call you 1fat?) I'd be interested to know the order these were made in - certainly the pipe front and center in the first pic shows some inconsistencies in shaping that the other pokers don't seem to at the bowl/shank joint. You aren't getting a real tight stem transition but if you don't have the tooling that's pretty impossible. You cutting with a tenon cutter?

This has to be the same fat bastard from youtube. What's up, it's nsschmid! You'll find these guys aren't as hugs and lollipops as youtube pipe reviews, but they're good for a laugh. You should post up pictures of that cock and balls poker and see what folks have to say about that one! :lol:


And before I forget, nice pipes.

Looks like you've been scrambling up that learning curve at a pretty good pace. Impressive pipes, especially for working without a net.

But speaking of lollipops . . . what flavor is that freehand? I'm thinking maybe a butterscotch, or is it caramel? Quite an array of flavors, delightful!
