A New Pipe Maker

Post by Findlater »

Hello all!

My name is Ryan and I live all the way up in Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada.
I am probably the definition of a new pipe maker. I have a bunch of files, a vice from projects past most recently building a deck and I bought a drill press not because I'm totally hooked but I got it for $100 and when a deal like that comes along in the north you best take it and find a use for it later on!
Ive got some briar kits Im just about to goto work on here foe very much my first time at carving wood instead of measuring, cutting, and nailing.
I'm thinking Im going to enjoy it as a hobby, probably not much more.
Photos to come whenever I get these things looking less like cubes with stems sticking out the side! :mrgreen:
