Re: Nautilus Reverse Calabash
I really dig this shape. And the rustication really looks good on it. As for the stem, I can't tell if it's lighting, but the crease behind the button doesn't look as sharp as it could be or maybe it's not as polished.
I think it would look more graceful with a stem about an inch longer and with the saddle just a little closer to the stummel.
Is this one for sale?

Cool pipe!
The only thing I see is that the lines of your central smooth panel when viewed from below are not symmetrical and wobble a bit. It'd drive me nuts if it were mine.

Thank you Jeremiah, the crease should be better if i make it sharper, i will notice all your advice for the next pipe, i just think it is cool to made nosewarmer reversed so i take a short stem and the pipe has sold.
Me too Bruce, love the teksture so much i will keep it as is.
Thanks for the god word Nate, Socrates...
Thank you Tyler..actually i mean leave it in a non symetrical line, but maybe it will be better when the line is symetric.. right?

I mean that the lines of the smooth panel should mirror each other.
