    I Made a Bulldog

    As a side note. Watch craigslist, theres lathes on there often. I picked up my Craftsman 12" for $150

    I Made a Bulldog

    Do I think I could? A resounding no. I've tried. Though I made a tool for my drill press that fixes the cone shape right, so with that maybe. I just don't think I am good enough yet. That said, it can be done. It will take a lot longer and it it will be hard to get the lines as exact.

    I Made a Bulldog

    If by this you mean the rings, I used a 1/2" Skew tool sharpened well. I used the point of the skew with the tool turned up rather than the usual side on approach. Eventually I will own a 1/16th parting tool for this

    I Made a Bulldog

    Is each quarter panel exactly the same size? I don't know, I didn't measure them. They appear so, and indeed they were laid out to be I Do know there is symmetry top to bottom and side to side. If you look down the side from button to bowl are the corners straight and sharp? I confess I...

    Favorite Arms Manufacturer

    Favorite manufacturer, (modern handguns) Ruger. I have fire the S&W 7 shot, and admit its got a noticeably nicer trigger, but there is just something about how my first GP100 6" fit in my hand. I had to buy a new one because some turd decided he wanted mine more than I did. The new one has Hague...

    Question About Carving Pipes

    Every one of my successful carves have exacted their own pound of flesh so to speak. Now that I have a lathe I must pray to the Briar gods (Or at least to God) to be sure that price doesn't go up!

    Question About Carving Pipes

    FWIW I did my first two or three carves on predrilled blocks with files rasps, a Dremel and a palm sander. They weren't anything to write home about but they were decent smokable pipes. (My first is still my favorite and I smoke it often. My second was bought by a forum member because he liked...

    How Many Pipes?

    And THAT sir is the one truth to all of this I have found in the almost year I've been back at it. If I cant dedicate at least 15 minutes to truly enjoy the pipe, reflecting on whatever comes to mind and completely relaxing the day away, I dont enjoy the pipe like I should. I just wish there...

    How Many Pipes?

    I started with one pipe. My collection grew more out of a want for more pies just because than any rotation concern. That said, I do try to rotate them though I cant say I have specific pipes for specific blends. But then I only have 7 or 8 that I smoke. The others are 1. a mini cob that isn't...
