Re: Finished Sasquatch Zulu
every photo but the first is blury but what the hell. i like this one. the stummels got nice grain and you trimmed the meat off it nicely, but the shank size doesnt match the bowl size. the stem seems a little odd and uneven because the bottom line is nice and straight while the top starts to taper halfway down, but other than that shes nice looking. btw i love how you took the pics on the lathe, i like that alot.
anyway
cheers

Re: Finished Sasquatch Zulu
Just so you know, its a pot. Zulu usually cants forward. The stain is nice. The additional stem ornamentation looks good, it meshes well with the overall pipe design. The shank/bowl junction needs to have a lot more taken off. The stem length and bend are good. I would spend more time polishingyour stem., it looks like it just came off your tripoli wheel.

Are you by chance using an old atlas lathe?

Re: Finished Sasquatch Zulu
I like the shape.
If your camera has a macro setting, use it. Photobucket has a pretty good on-board photo editing tool, which you should play with. Just tweak the controls until the picture looks better. You've got a good eye, so I think you can figure it out.
