Here's number three, A canted nose warmer I made for a friend. I am pretty happy with it overall, I know it has flaws though.
I used delrin for the first time and also two different stains this time. I still struggle with the junction at the bit and stem a bit though.

Re: No. 3
The pics aren't great but where the bit meets the rest of the stem. On the sides of it where the file would nibble some when rounding the edge. I figured it was better to leave it as is rather than doing irreversible damage to an otherwise good bit. Also, two pis showed up on the shank. Not very big yet I chose to leave them as is.

Re: No. 3
The biggest two things I see are he shaping on the bottom of the bowl, you've got too much material both on the front and on the back of the bowl. Then the button work needs some help. Avail yourself of the techniques demonstrated in LatakiaLover's video on stems.
