Eltang & Tokutomi visit
Eltang & Tokutomi visit
I just checked out Tom's webcam today and saw some amazing pipes that were unlike anything I had ever seen him produce. Has he been influenced by Kent? Is he reinventing himself? What the hell?!
Then I saw one that looked like a Tokutomi. Aha! I remembered that Tokutomi San was supposed to be visiting him. That might explain those pieces. So, check out the webcam over the next few days and you will be sure to see some very interesting pipes in various stages of completion.
Best,
Jeff

Thanx for the link!
Tony Saintiague @ Smoking Pipes told me of Toms' visit w/Tokutomi and I too thought this would affect Toms' pipes. Tokutomis' last pipes have a contrast stain - a new developement. These two guys are amazing pipemakers and are sure to influence one another and by extention, pipemaking in general. I am eager to see how Toms' new pipes progress.

"Tokutom" ... that's a riot.
I wonder how they communicate? I.e. what language do they speak with one another?

Re: Tukotomi
Yes, you should be able to post them in the photo gallery. Or if you'd still prefer:smokepiper wrote:I can´t find your e-mail adress nor your name at the memberslist. Is it ok if I post them at the photogallery??????????
