If i didn't know that a master carver designed this unique naturally looking pipe,i would assume that mother nature brought it through centuries of evolution into this world.
Amazing birdseye !

I know his secret--and I will tell:
He obviously uses a really tiny dremel to carve each tiny crevice into each pipe.
I can't believe you guys couldn't tell

I thought he focused his mind on the pipe so hard that it simply formed itself according to his will.
Is that not true? I feel so disillusioned...

I figured he just deprived the briar of calcium until it developed osteoporosis 
Really great work. Truly original.
