Well it still needs a lot of work but it smokes.
happy with the tobacco bowl a nice taper
The smoke hole enters at the bottom of the bowl nice.
The bit an old p lip fits well.
There are 1 or 2 rough spots but i have learnt a lot.
Hopefully the next 1 will be better.
I so need a better chuck.
Yo HH 1 almost down 49 to go Hahahaha. |
Holy smokin' hobos!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGO HD GO!
Damn dude that's cool, can't believe you beat me to it, although I shouldn't be surprised.
The pipe looks to be a good size, quite surprising from that small block, and you might end up with a a 'perfect' your first time out, lucky.
Freakin' awesome job. :)
Those rough spots in the pics could be grain tear-out from blunt chisels. Do you have any normal wood chisels lying around with better steel in them?
Its a steep learning curve.
ReplyDeleteDave, you ought to keep that one just as it is. Most people would finish it but for some reason I get a strong hunch that pipe is "special" for some reason...other than being the first...just a hunch.
ReplyDeleteThanks Chuck your right it does feel kinda special.
DeleteIt has its rough spots but they add character.
No2 should be better i would hope.
