Starting work on my pipe for the trade tomorrow. Not going to lie...I think I may crap my pants.

It kinda sounds like you just channeled Peter Griffin there.

Not that much the Walle's style of nowadays... but let's say; Walle revisited by Mr. Hyde

Walle / on YouTube

It's good. But the original is much better; a masterpiece

Really nice pipe!
But what is that whiteish stuff in the tenon?

It's a very small stinger: 2mm long... it's removable for any case.

Wow, I really like your style. Does your pipe intentionally look like your llogo? Is it just me?

Nice one, Eder! How did you do the rings on the shank?

DaGamba · Post by **DaGamba** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 4:43 pm

Here's what I came up with so far. It's not to much "out of the box" so I might make another one. There are a few things I have to fix on this one though. Have to make the bend on the stem better and redo the finish. But anyhow... Here she is.

I hesitate to offer criticism, but if it were me doing this pipe, I would be tempted to carry on into a violin head type of shape. I can't tell if that's what you were going for or not.

DaGamba · Post by **DaGamba** » Wed Jan 12, 2011 6:45 pm

No, that was not what I planned to do. But I like the idea. At some point I had some idea that it would be a drop of water, kinda, but that somehow got lost in the shaping....
My girlfriend said about the pipe; "it seams like you started out with no idea of what it will be in the end and that's what it looks like". And I have to agree with her

The pipe did have sharper edges before I fucked it up with my buffing....

Comrades,
here is my entry to the PITHT 'extravaganza' homage to Maestro Wallenstein, since it is almost impossible to copy Walle and not end up like a 'miserable competitor' i have grabbed the liberated spirit he trows at us and transformed it into a shape through the prism of a classical Japanese Zen stile.It is out of my olive wood with a ebonite stem hand carved.

Abi, that olive wood is wicked pretty, man. You did a great job of capturing the essence of that picture. Well done, man.
