My first piece of plateau

Post by Ocelot55 »

I did this pipe for a commission. I used a block of PME tuscan briar, and wow, what a pleasure to work with. The customer specified the shape otherwise I would have liked to have done something different. This pipe took me 14 hours straight. I got in the groove and didn't stop, not even for a snack. Let me know what you guys think.

That's a nice piece of briar you've got there. Yep, that's definitely the same stem I used in my pipe! Nice work! :thumbsup:

The only think that jumps out at me is the stem/shank connection issues. The rest of it is artistic license to do what you want with the shape chosen.
