Another billiard

Post by Albert.A »

Hey guys.

This is a billiard I finished today. I'm pretty happy with it, but in hindsight I think the shank is a bit to fat, it may be correct or not, (when speaking of classical billiards) but I prefer to have a slightly thinner shank. And I think the bowl might be a bit bottom-heavy.

Please tell me what you think of it and point out the things that need improvement! :)

I think the shanks looks very good, and actually quite classic for a billiard (at least classic english)
I don't find it too thick. I like this pipe, and you did a good job!

A very nice pipe. In my opinion, the line from the bottom to the front of the bowl is a little too abrupt, but it's very minor. Other than that, I've got nothing. Keep up the good work!
