it reminds me of dreadlocks. but very imaginative.

that is stellar! nice work... how did you keep the staining so precise?

great, thanks Kurt.

i've got some acrylic from my pen turning days... not sure if it's extruded or not though.

any recommendations on where to get the ebonite from?

edit: what size acrylic rod do you generally start with??

all, i've been lingering on this site for a number of years. i've made a few stummels with premade stems that turned out just OK. i started making one full on pipe from scratch a few years ago, drilling the holes, etc, and tried to make stem to go along with it. around that time, someone (maybe pier...

well done sir. i think the blast looks spot on, maybe a little more intense on one side, but that's splitting hairs.

i LOVE that danish rhodesian and the billiard ain't too shabby either! well done.

sweet pipe, that's about my favorite style. very well done.

i don't think the line looks too bad personally. i see that it's a little off, but that is one sweet looking pipe. i love the finish and rustification. i'd be very happy to smoke from it.

sweet pipe man... i think it looks perfect, as is. as stated before, it just flows very nicely, good proportions on each element. well done sir!

now that is what i call a volcano. fantastic interpretation of the style and very well executed.

i like both. especially the second one, great use of the grain on that one. the shank extension is a little long for me on the first pipe, but what do i know. great work.

my problem was i ordered way too many different kinds and i don't smoke all that much. there were a few that i didn't care for, but mostly i ordered a bunch of killer recommendations from this site. i can remember smoking the benjamin hartwell 'eveninig stroll' quite often and kinda neglecting the o...

howdy, haven't been smoking the pipes for quite a few months but am in the mood for a few bowls lately... broke out my tobacco stash tonight and everything still seems good to go. it's been in the tins it came in or bags it came in inside a sealed jar since last smoke. will it still be OK or can i e...

nice looking pipe. i especially like the bowl.

man, that pipe is awesome! love the heft to it and the shape is phenomenal.

i really like it! very nice looking grain and a cool shape.

simple, sleek, elegant. very nice.

i think it's a beauty. the only thing is the shank extension appears a little long, but i suppose that was the limit of the briar. nice work!

that's a fine looking pipe charl. i love the grain, staining and overall shape of it. i think the stem is perfect, nice job and i can't wait to see some more of your briar creations!
