OMG I just about died laughing! That's great.

Well I finally got my block in from Turkey :) Obviously it's it's against the law their to send out raw material so he just made a kit for me. Still not a true pipe maker yet but I think I'm well on my way to. And I don't really have a choice on Meer considering the laws. ANYWAYS, it came to me as a...

Should have put "lol". I had one of those duh moments because I've been to his website many many times haha.

Now that I have a proper lathe :), I am getting all my stuff together! I am buying the arbors and buffing wheels from PIMO but I still need a sanding set up. I really like the one at Tyler's shop, it's a padded (foam) 6" disk I believe with velcro attached sanding sheets. I am getting a jacobs...

Love the zipper pipe, it's different...I like that.

Well I got some more briar kits in since I don't have my lathe yet (that will be fixed tomorrow) and I decided to make another poker because I still haven't fixed the problems I was doing on the previous two. I also was going to make a volcano. The beginning stages of the volcano started well but I ...

Oh ok, how many pipes have you made so far rev? I got my second one finished minus the stem, waiting on more wood to come in before I can keep going.

oh I am just going to look at other peoples work. Rad is gonna be there for one. I reckon I am a fair ways off from getting a table if ever. I am gonna be embarrassed just showing my pipes to the pros this weekend rev How do you get a table anyways? can you not just show up and be like, here is my ...

Great topic :) I think for me personally, I will take the middle ground. Find a good used wood lathe OR fix the one I got OR buy a new one. Either way, get a good working wood lathe for drilling, turning and sanding purposes. Other than that, after getting it tooled up I would buy w/e I needed to ma...

I will be attending a pipe show this weekend. The question is, when will you and I be featured artists :) "you've got to play this game with fear and arrogance" Crash Davis :) rev Not for a WHILE brother haha. I still have a ton to learn. I do like the idea of going to a pipe show, showin...

Your the man Rev, we will be attending pipes shows before you know it, mark my words!

Thanks for the feed back. It was drilled by Tyler so it was drilling right. I will keep plugging away and update again tonight. Thanks for the positive feedback!

Personally speaking I am finding it hard to see a lot of to contours due to it being black and having shadows. I love the stem
