Horn #2

Post by JMG »

There was some improvement from my first horn attempt, but still A LOT of room yet to do better. I think I put a bit too much bend in the stem on this one. I would really appreciate your guys critique. Sorry for my poor pics.

I think you could use a little more of a bend in the stummel.

Also, it could be a little thinner longer in the shank area.

And it would really benefit from a contrast stain.

Yeah you really want more bend in the stummel, but I would smoke it myself. I have a similar pipe I made that I kept for myself and I enjoy it but it's really way too much forward cant.

One of my favorite shapes. Needless to say I like this pipe a great deal. With that said I also think a contrast stain would make it "POP". Can't wait to see your next Horn.
