I don't know if anyone remembers my GFS (Gratuitously Fat & Stumpy) pipes or my Balloon pipes, but this one is sort of a mixture of both...

Splendid!!!
Are you having probems with your photo sessions? Very distracting relflections. However my schooling in fine arts allowes me to appreciate your sensitivity towards aesthetics, which in the end, allowes you to create such fine work.
My compliments.

Looks great, John! Somehow it looks like I'd love that one for the sailboat, only I don't have one

. I guess it's the fond memories of good outdoor smokes in an old GBD stubby I had in my earlier collection. Short pipes really help while enjoying a smoke outside, and that's just a beautiful pipe!

Great finish on that pipe buddy. I feel like I could shave with the glossy reflection on the bowl. The shape is really cool too!

Rembers?! Sheesh! John, give us some credit. We can all remember to last week.

Ok I admit I tend to make rather stumpy pipes on occasion. However, this one is especially fat and stumpy.
