My Fifth Pipe

Post by DkGanz »

This is my latest creation. I was inspired by the “chin” and flattened bottom of my newly acquired Castello 55. Made from a pre-drilled block with only hand tools. Unlike my earlier pipes I did not stop at 1000 grit sandpaper, I used micromesh pads to smooth further. I like the results much better. Image

Thanks for the heads up. I’m new here and not quite sure how this all works yet!

We all were at some point. No worries at all.

That looks nice!

Yeah, I wish I would have looked around a bit more first.

Hey, at least I read the "READ THIS BEFORE YOU JOIN!" stuff! That was more than I've done before joining any other forums. :-)
