Bloodwood with a desert ironwood band and spalted tamarind on the one that's a column.
The top are just lil scraps of bloodwood, blue boxed maple, and bristlcone if I remember right. Just thought to finally get off my butt and share.

They don't look oversized to me. Really nice, and the combination of woods goes togeather really well.

Thank you for the kind words. I really appreciate it.
I have a stash of exotics that I stocked years ago. I would never be able to afford replacing nowadays. I build grips, Knive scales and handles, and inlay work on furniture etc. Even lil pieces go a long way. But some of them just laugh at a wood lathe. Even on a metal lathe they can give my tooling a run for its money. But I'm an addict so I just like makin them. I made a few dozen but gave them away. Was just playing with posting pics. Rest assured next batch will be coming soon.

Those are quite nice :) I like how they're shorter than other tampers I've seen... I want to say about half as long, maybe a bit more.

These are some very nice, exotic tapers. I tend to stick to my Brigham pipe tool because it combines other tools with it, but your tapers are enviable. Wish I could see them in person.
