It took me forever to get this pipe done as other things have been keeping me out of the shop (like a baby on the way and a nesting wife who keeps me in a healthy honey-do list).
Anyhow, here she is. It is the first pipe I've stamped and it is going to my oldest brother:

Pugmeister,
It is a very nice pipe indeed. I love the bowl-stem junction and the grain, as well as the stain. Which one did you use?
Well worth a stamp.

Thanks, Michael.
I stained a few times with sandings between, but mostly Fiebing's medium brown.
It got posed on CPS in an incomplete state a couple of times, but I guess I'll update with the final pics.

Oh man oh man...that is outstanding. I absolutely love everything about it Munkey. I love that narrow bamboo stem, that rocks!
Fantastic work, your brother is a lucky man!

Now THAT is my kind of pipe. Why waste such a thing on a big brother? All he ever did was beat you up when you were little! Send it to me!
Seriously though, good work! Really.

Wow, that's a fantastic pipe! Very nice work... Man, if that's the stamping standard I'm going to need to sand some stamps off.. 8O

You did a heck of a job on that pipe.
