Ok, got another one up for critique. Another first for me, squared the block to follow the grain pattern, How'd I do? Sas, how is my shaping on the stem? Took your advise on a gradual flare from the shank to the bit.
specs:
bowl height = 1.286
chamber = .780
chamber depth = 1.09
bowl width = 1.420
length = 5.86

Shaping, overall, is by far the best so far. One thing that is sticking out to me is the width of the accent vs. the width of the ebonite slice. I'd make the ebonite half as wide. Right now they look very close to the same but not exactly.... which is weird. Either make them EXACTLY the same or OBVIOUSLY different.

Sent from my bloopty-bloop, using hooty-hoo.

Looking nice, yeah. If you put a file long-ways down either side of the stem, any light showing through? That's the easiest way I know of keep that line.

Finally got some time to get back to this. Is this enough bend for this pipe? Anything else jump out at you as way off/wrong? Again, Thanks so much for putting up with me and for all of your guy's help!
