That's because most pipemakers would rather save time by picking up a hammer and whacking their kneecaps with it.Charl wrote:I thought I'd throw this one on here, seeing that there aren't that many panellled pipes posted.

Polishing a slot? Ha, just in case you forgot, I live in Africa!
Just joking, Sas, I did forget to do it before the pics. My humblest apologies!

Re: Goussard Pipes #1519
Thanks Felix, but it's not really original. I've seen a couple shaped like this.
Re: Goussard Pipes #1519
Does not matter; It is a beautiful pipe, and the execution is impeccable.
Best regards.

Re: Goussard Pipes #1519
Very nicely done, Charl. I like this pipe a lot.
Re: Goussard Pipes #1519
Going back and looking at it again, there is one thing that bothers me a bit with this one and that is the angle of the rim. With it slanted towards the bit it gives the illusion that the bowl tilts in that direction when it doesn't. I would do one of two things: 1) either make the rim flat or 2) put a slight bend in the stem.

It certainly isn't done often. At least to completion. Most attempts are abandoned or morph into "unpanels" along the way, I imagine.Charl wrote:Thanks Felix, but it's not really original. I've seen a couple shaped like this.
Joe Nelson has made the bulldog version of this shape a couple times, and said never again after the last one.

PS -- I agree with wayne that a level rim (or even slightly back-tilted) rim would look better.

Wayne, you hit it on the head, thanks! I was thinking that something doesn't look right.
I wonder how Joe did the rings on the bulldog? Very cool!
