#1101 and #1102

#1101:
My first bamboo. Took 3 times as long as a normal pipe, had a lot of problems and mistakes making it, but a lot was learned and hopefully the next one will be quicker and better.





#1102:
Tried out a new (for me) way of staining on this one. Not really satisfied yet..

Hey comrade Charl,
That is some great news,the bamboo looks really intense and very long!
The billiard has a calm shape to it,must be your newly fatherhood speaking through your work .

Best,
Abi

The bamboo shanked pipe is really beautiful. The only thing I think would make it look a little bit better would be if the briar shank didn't angle upwards, but came out straighter instead. However, this is strictly an personal opinion. Either way, you did a wonderful job on this!

Put simply, the 1101 is a work of art.

Thanks for the kind words, guys.
