I've made a 'dog or two, and a freehand sorta rhodesian, but haven't ever tried a more traditional rhodesian shape. This was an order by the owner of a local B&M. The stem is lucite and there is a delrin mortise lining.
The stem could be shaped a little better. I have got to start bending them earlier! Hope you like it.
EDIT: Tano requested a top view. It's now included.

Tano, I went ahead and added a picture of the top view for you.
I received a phone call last night from the new owner. He about gave me a heart attack! Started off by complaining about a hot smoke, gurgling, etc. Turned out he was just giving me a hard time. He's thrilled with the pipe and said that it smokes wonderfully. So I'm happy too
Glad you guys like it!

Rhodesians are not my favorite shape - but this one is great! From the top view the stem looks very good, from the side it seems that it could be bent a little bit more on the upper side - but that should only be an agrrement to your selfe criticle statement...
Very nice pipe! Superp grain!
