It's great to see you back Tommi! These faux blasts still amaze me!

Happy to see that you are back, Tommi.

Now let's be honest. Are those really faux blasts? They look so realistic! I have always been astounded by how you do that.

It's when the pipemaker rusticates in a manner which mimics an actual sandblast- it's really really difficult.

Those are really nice. The faux blasts are almost completely convincing. I think if a guy didn't know they weren't sandblasts he might not catch it. The bowls are pretty indistinguishable from a real sandblast. The rustication on the shanks are the give-away. Refine the shank rustication pattern and I don't think most would even know.

Fantastic pipes, Tommi! I never get tired of being fooled by your fake blast. Great stuff!

Gorgeous, you have been busy. I also appreciate the fact you provide pictures of the stem out of the shank so one can see the connection, that's really helpful.
