#040 Freehand Bamboo Dublin
#040 Freehand Bamboo Dublin, Another pipe I made in the last few weeks.
Re: #040 Freehand Bamboo Dublin
Another beauty. I thought the ring was on the stem, but I see in a later picture it's actually on the bamboo shank. How do you get a ring on bamboo? I've never used bamboo, but after seeing all your pipes, you're giving me the bamboo itch. One of these days I'm going to have to scratch it. LOL

Re: #040 Freehand Bamboo Dublin
I'd call this a cherrywood instead of a freehand dublin, but other than that, a lovely pipe. I've been seeing more and more bamboo work lately and it looks hard
The stummel and bamboo work are great, but I'm less of a fan of the ring on the bamboo and the button on the stem, it looks a bit out oversized to me...

Re: #040 Freehand Bamboo Dublin
Very pretty. My only critique is that she's a little green.
Re: #040 Freehand Bamboo Dublin
Except for the end ring ad the colour, I really dig the shape!

I use lathe to turn the bamboo and the ring, then glue them together.

If you put the pipe in your hand, the ring and stem looks better than in the photos.

Re: #040 Freehand Bamboo Dublin
really cool shape, nicely executed.
Thus o’er my pipe, in contemplation
Of such things, I can constantly
Indulge in fruitful meditation
And so, puffing contentedly,
On land, on sea, at home, abroad,
I smoke my pipe and worship God.
-Johann Sebastian Bach

Re: #040 Freehand Bamboo Dublin
This one stopped me in my tracks. I like the shape and the color of the bamboo and ring actually really appeal to me after multiple viewings.
