Nice job Greg...I've got a kit that's been begging to be made into a pipe for 3 years now. You've inspired me to give it a go. i make no promises as to how it will look, but I'm going to give it a try over the Christmas / New Years Holidays....
Okay, I posted the thread on carving s kit as a forum project with a few thoughts. Read it here: Forum Project Carve a Pipe Kit. Take a look and add any thoughts or suggestion you have if you are interested in participating.
