    Got the Carving Chisels Out - My 3rd Pipe

    That is a really gorgeous piece of work! And the stain is beautiful. It has an exotic flare to it. Well done indeed!

    Pegasus in a Peterson XL 315 P Lip on a cold and bleak October day. Snow on the ground, snow in the air, cloudy, windy, temp about -6C And I'm hunkered down in my shop working. I love it!

    Rusticated Billiard

    Olkofri, No breaks. I went to the doctor and then X-rays and just bruised. Was told, ice, heat and time.

    Rusticated Billiard

    Hi Folks, I finished off this billiard today. Anyway; here are a few pics. I was a bit sloppy and got some stain down into the bottom of the bowl. After first smoke you won't even know it was there.

    Filter Pipes

    In my cobs that accept a filter I use a filter. IMHO it makes no difference to taste. I never use a filter more than once. Just give it a try both ways and decide for yourself. My Brighams use what's called the Maple filter system. All they are supposed to do is absorb moisture but I do find...

    Ever Have One Of Those , "Oh F@#%, I'm Dead Moments?"

    Yup! I hear you all. One slip, one being too tired and letting a safety procedure pass because you're just too damn tired, or being intimidated by a bully foreman or supervisor can get you killed real quick when they demand that you do something that you feel you shouldn't be doing and is...

    Ever Have One Of Those , "Oh F@#%, I'm Dead Moments?"
