Randomly met someone a while back who worked at a pipe factory in the early 80's. She had a couple blocks that have been wrapped up in her garage since then that she just gave to me. Here's the first two I finished. Hefty pipes. What do yuh'all think?
Sorry that this first pic is a little blurry
And the 2nd one

Right on, those pipes are very nice, they seem to be pretty large, I'd hate to pry but I'm curious as to their actual size and perhaps weight. I like the artistry.

The first is 6 1/4 inches long, 2 3/4 inches tall. The tobacco chamber is 1 7/8 inches deep, with a diameter of 1 inch. 3 ounces.
