first pipes almost done

Post by Sasquatch »

Well, until I get a proper camera, the Blackberry lens is all I can do. Probably good to not get a guy's first couple of pipes in TOO sharp a focus anyway.

The bent is a rough copy of a Peterson 315xl. The straight stack I just wanted something real easy on the lathe.

They are currently shown with a final tripoli polish but no wax yet.

Drilling went well. Finishing went not bad considering. Staining and polishing really show up the sandpaper boo-boos.

Thanks to all for all your help. What a great site... Thanks Kurt.

Good looking pipes there. If you get around to some better quality pictures and you're looking for advice/critique post them up.
