That rhodesian is on good lookin' blast from what I can see. I'm definitely looking forward to seeing the finished results on these!
I agree ! I blasted my first pipe at the Pipemakers Seminar before the Chicago Show. Lots of fun ! I wanted to stand there and blast away until there wasnt a pipe left :D
@bentmike, I actually used my father in laws set up. Besides his compressor, the whole set up was custom made by him.
@Chris, ha, we will get it figured out for what ever yo would like!
@Dave, that briar was pretty dang nice, I have a huge pit in the front bowl of the bigger pipe with the white and black stem, but I am going to improvise on that one, and it didnt reach the bowl so I was in luck!
@Lazydog, nice pun! ha
Thanks everyone for the nice words one these, I will be sure to post finished pics as they happen.

Coming together nicely!
A friend of mine has a great technique for you to try: Try a few light sandblasts to follow bring the grain pattern up, then focus on the grain lines with a heavier sandblast, and finish with a light blast to bring everything to a similar level. Seems to work pretty well for him.
