Earlier this week I posted some picks of a restoration of a nice little LHS pot style pipe I had done for a friend of mine and sent to him as a gift. While I did have the "after" pics, I didn't have any "before" pics at the time. Well, I managed to find a couple so I thought I would post them all again here.

So, here are the before pics;

buffing, polishing, and new wax
