Abe, That's a really nice pipe. I love the shape. You executed it very, very well. The only thing I see that could be better is the finish. Maybe a bit faster rpm with white compound and wax would make all the diffference. Great job.

Absolutely gorgeous. Very well done.
I think Wayne is right about the finish. I think the stain could have done a better job at highlighting all that wonderful grain.
Still, awesome pipe.

Abe,
I think you did a great job on this pipe. This style Rhodesian is what I like too. Nice curves, without the bowl sitting up too terribly high. The stain and finish somehow give it a vintage look to me. I like the rim as well.
Nicely done.
Brian.

Very good job! Very nice lines! Nice color.
Maybe more white diamond and carnauba wax, was needed.
Bravo!

Thanks guys.
Yeah, sped up my rpm on the white diamond and wax, that made a nice difference.

Nice job!
Just by the way, is the rim inverted a bit or is it just the photo that make it looks like it?

Thanks Charl. Yeah, the rim is chamfered, I like to do that to most of my pipes.
