PITH 2020!

[W.Heisenberg]

Today's the day! I've been pretty tied up with 3 POY sets, but looks like i'll have my PITH ready in time!

Shaping done (finally). Time to wrap this puppy up!

[KurtHuhn]

As per usual, I never start anything until the last moment. Here's my contribution, fresh off the lathe.





Stem next, then shaping.

And I am managing to take video of the process - just so everyone can see me continue to do everything "the wrong way"

Progress! Needs polished and the stem bent.

PITH 2020 in progress
So I finally got off my duff and realized that 31 July is approaching fast. Nothing like a deadline to spur me to action. Unfortunately, this will be my only attempt this year unless I completely blow it.
Sorry, recipient, no accent lines. They are hard to do when you freehand a shape and I don’t have enough time to experiment. It does have superior grain, however.

My entry is complete. A few additional photos can be found on my Instagram page.

Glad I decided to participate. Its fun to see everyone's efforts and different takes. I'm looking forward to some constructive feedback.

I'm still in, I have a couple completed and should be finishing up on the last one tonight or tomorrow unless I goof up on it. Then I'll post the one I think turned out best.

[dansutherlin]

Well, it looks like I'm out this year. I've had shop flooding and other problems added to my usual comedy of pipemaking errors. My latest attempt has just turned out to have a bunch of sand pits. As I say for so many things in 2020; there's always next year.

[OCTEEL]

Well I’m finished. I feel way better about my entry this year versus last. Having the extra time to get a small lathe and trying to learn how to use it , has helped me a great deal.
