Well I finally got my block in from Turkey Obviously it's it's against the law their to send out raw material so he just made a kit for me. Still not a true pipe maker yet but I think I'm well on my way to. And I don't really have a choice on Meer considering the laws. ANYWAYS, it came to me as a drilled block of meer, etc. and here it is now.

The shank is a little too straight now that I am seeing how the bowl curves but I think I can fix that. Obviously I have some sanding to do and already have plans for the top of the bowl. I like the way the bowl is curving and the overall look of the pipe so far is what I wanted.

What would you change? Any advice? Did I already screw it up beyond belief haha? Give me some good HONEST, BRUTAL feed back on the progress so far. IF you feel like you can of course. Pics are beeelow.

Well, you've already screwed it up... that looks nothing like a claw holding an egg!

Awesome! Can't wait to see what you do with it.

OMG I just about died laughing! That's great.

I do like the shape though... Looks like a checkmark ✔... like the pipe gods have given approval of your face
