No gaudy colours any more ...

Comrades!

While "some" of our American competitors are tying hard to attract their customers with pipes in gaudy colours, we Europeans have retuned to decent staining again.

Cheerio!

I am somehow reminded of "The Fortress of Solitude".

Really cool, Walle.

I think you missed a spot with the sanding wheel...

Those are pretty cool.

Awesome! Reminds me of basalt column formations.

Holy crap, Walle, you have outdone yourself! These are so cool!

I feel like Sauron would like this finish.

Well done sir!

By the way, I hadn't been to your site for a while, Walle....the pipes you have on display there right now are so fantastic! I love the little creatures! I want one to crawl up out of my garden and into my pipe rack!

Fantastic stuff Roger!!! Your miserable competitor would love to have another Walle just like one of these! Truly original.

Wow nice. Its amazing how you make obscure design ideas work so well.
A few coats of Day-Glo neon spraypaint would look just spiffy though.

Fine, Walle,
I did not want to like your pipes. In fact, I thought they were downright crazy (especially for a German--you guys are all supposed to be about making sense), but, fine....I submit

Those are some of the coolest pipes I've seen EVER! I want like, eight of them!
Is this from the Castle Grey Skull collection (don't know if you guys have "He-Man" in Deutschland)?

AWESOME, AWESOME work. Some of the most creative stuff I've seen anywhere and I really like the stem pairings. You seem to have a found a way (in your stem work) to balance what could be a very difficult shape to pair with a stem. Okay, now that I've been converted, I'll have to go back through the gallery to look at some of your past work so that I can preach the gospel of Wallenstein to anyone that will listen:

Typical Heathen: "What's up with Vaa...Wallenstein's pipes? Is he out of his mind??"

Sorringowl: "No, he's not crazy, man...believe me...he's just...just...ECCENTRIC! A creative GENIUS!"

Oh, boy, now I even sound like a convert. In all seriousness, though, I'm really impressed with these. Beautiful work. Thanks for the inspiration.

Wow!

Thanks comrades for your unexpected positive feedback

I'm flattered.

Cheerio!
