This is my 4th attempt at pipe making. I seem to be getting better each time, but it's getting to the point where I need honest outside feedback to make sure I'm going to rise to the next level. I would appreciate any honest feedback and advice that you can give.

Take a look at:

Pretty cool. I like the shape, but boy the stem seems huge compared to the stummel. All in all though pretty cool. Sand off the stain on the inside of the bowl.

Looks good, but I think the stem needs to curve with the stummel. Just a tad, so that you don't have this big, black, straight stem on a flowing, curved stummel.

Bend the stem (if it were me, I would bend it up so you don't get ashes falling out all over the place-although opinions may vary).

That is a pretty pipe, though, particularly for your fourth.
