Not a bad looking pipe, but I feel like it's an apple masquerading as a prince.

Yes it is a little more appleish, but the guy who wanted it wanted one like I had made before. He is very happy with it and just messaged me today to tell me he has 14 pipes, some higher end estates and a handmade Sav. He says by far the best smoking pipe he has. I'm glowing over here He's already asked if I could do another pipe for him in the near future.JMG wrote:Not a bad looking pipe, but I feel like it's an apple masquerading as a prince.
