Thanks.

I'd call this a cherrywood instead of a freehand dublin, but other than that, a lovely pipe. I've been seeing more and more bamboo work lately and it looks hard :lol: The stummel and bamboo work are great, but I'm less of a fan of the ring on the bamboo and the button on the stem, it looks a bit ou...

Another beauty. I thought the ring was on the stem, but I see in a later picture it's actually on the bamboo shank. How do you get a ring on bamboo? I've never used bamboo, but after seeing all your pipes, you're giving me the bamboo itch. One of these days I'm going to have to scratch it. LOL Wall...

thanks.

that is a good looking pipe, great job my friend.

I like this one quite a bit. Nice work. This one's a win. Excellent color on the bowl. thanks beauty pipe. was this a commision? if so they are very lucky. i think an ebonite/ivory spacer would clean the bamboo/shank transition evan it is not a commission, but it already has a place to go. beautifu...

#040 Freehand Bamboo Dublin, Another pipe I made in the last few weeks. http://pzhanpipes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/IMG_3017.jpg http://pzhanpipes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/IMG_3018.jpg http://pzhanpipes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/IMG_3019.jpg http://pzhanpipes.com/wp-content/uploads/2...

The curved bamboo was a perfect choice. It looks great with the pipe. I have problems with bamboo. The exact same issues I see on yours... well, I have not been able to move past yet. More practice. Good bamboo work is flat out hard. I've been able to get around some of it by using rings like you h...

Very nice pipe. Is the bamboo the natural color? If so, you did a very nice job on stain selection, they go very well together. Thanks my friend. The bamboo is the natural color. :D Now you know why bamboo is so hard :) when making a bamboo pipe, there are a lot things need to be pay attention to. ...

Here is a commission pipe. :D Bamboo Elephant Foot. http://pzhanpipes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/IMG_3011.jpg http://pzhanpipes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/IMG_3012.jpg http://pzhanpipes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/IMG_3013.jpg http://pzhanpipes.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/IMG_3014.jpg ...
