yeah, sorry, i guess i wasn't specific enough in my question. i understand now though. you guys have provided good (and hilarious) insight for me though. there aren't a lot of rules in pipe making as it's more of an art, and i was thinking that specific styles of pipe (dublin, poker, brandy etc.) us...

i had this question pop into my mind the other day. does the style of stem matter for the overall style of pipe? this may be a newbie question, since that's what i am. thanks for the info!

Thanks for the tips, and i have the pictures on my facebook right now but i'll have to set up a photobucket, that would be better.
