Wow Brad.... that is a killer... beutifull blast and stain and I love the curved slightly rounded boxwood shank ring with the stem countersunk like that a true delight!!

You'll just have to drop it on the floor a few times so it will be damaged beond repair and you'll have to keep it :P
Smoke in peace!!

Kick ass Brad! That rules. I agree with Love. The shank is a really neat touch. The blast is just awesome too.

Hey Guys,

I could take the credit, but you know that the blast is in the hands of the piece of wood, with a small amount of help from the blaster.

Rad, you are right! I had run out of bowl coating, but wanted to get pic posted to my site, so I stuffed a paper towel in the bowl and added tobacco on top to make it look like a filled pipe, and snapped away. I liked the result so much I may start doing it on all my shots. I think it kind of whets the PAD appetite. THIS IDEA IS COPY RIGHTED AND PATENTED BY ME. Anyone else caught using this idea will obviously be ripping me off!! (Nyuk,Nyuk,Nyuk (in my best Three Stooges imitation)).

Best,
Brad

Dammit, Brad!

Now I feel... insufficient. I have a very similar volcano that was *supposed* to be posted to my site tonight. I think I'll just go to bed instead.

I'm with rest, Brad. Completely awesome!

Man do I ever love your pipes!

You're right, the tobacco peeking up really makes me want to buy the thing and put a match to it! Yum.....

I always enjoy seeing your work, which is a huge inspiration!
