This was a commision for someone's brother. He asked for the shank to be monogramed.

I like the one Daniel helped you on.. but you did a really nice job on this one. My only critic for all of them is a little more defined button work... check out Neills blog on A Passon for Pipes for some ideas'

I like this one, but I think there are some improvements that can be made. First, did you cant the bowl? it looks like you didn't and that makes it look like there is an acute angle between bowl and shank. Optical illusion, though. I also would have taken a little more off the front bottom of the pipe and done an little rounding on the cheeks.

Overall, I like it. I love little billiards like this one.

Thank you guys. The bowl is canted but only slightly. It could have been more. I see what you mean about the chin and cheeks.

Buttons are still giving me fits so I'll definitely check out that blog.
