Sometimes when I am inspired with a design, I cannot sit still and not work every hour I can until it is done.
So here is my 7th homemade design inspired for Saint Patrick's Day: A Pot O' Gold
A green pot shape with a natural finish on the rim... hence a Pot O' Gold! :mrgreen:

I use Fiebings leather dye because it is a good stain that is not oil based.

The color for this Fiebings is: Green

It turns out about similar to Peterson Racing Green but without the darker tones Peterson gets.

A real beauty, the top contrast makes it a classic. The fact you din't attach a cheezy colored stem to it, which would have ruined it, pulled it together as a colletor's pipe.

Oh my God that looks like the old Minnesota Northstars jerseys.
Josh I've really enjoyed watching your pipe making journey.

I agree with Drag, the black stem with the green is a classic look, my birthday is Saint Pats day you can send it to me I will take very good care of it. The old cajun :mrgreen:

WOW... you are really turning into quite the pipe maker... not a fan of colored pipes... but it's still beautiful none the less.
