Not sure if this is in the right section, but it was my best guess.
(Please let me know if I'm wrong)..
So, I spend half of my day hypnotised by the stream of beautiful modded/custom cobs that flood my instagram feed.
John Keller and Eric Mills corn cob pipes seem to be my main obsession at the moment.
I am in envy of everything I see and extremely tempted to enquire about prices.. but I'm pretty scared about shipping to the UK and last minute custom charges.
I've even seen some awesome mods on here, such as @frozenchurchwarden 's Retired Generals (that burnt honey Macarthur looks as cool as they come).
I've dipped only the tip of a toe into trying it out myself, just staining the shanks/ one bowl to revitalise a near dead cob.
I'm pleased with the results, but my skills are limited, my tools are fewer and I really don't have the time to invest into improving right now.
Which brings me to wondering;
Does anyone know of any UK based cob-modders?
Or are there any hiding on here?
And as a side note..
Has anyone in the UK ordered from the above named or similar modders?
Am I right to fear the customs charge?
