What did you use to make the oblong divots that the pipe bowls rest in?

Thanks guys! I think my next project will have to be a combination pipe rack/tobacco closet, wardrobe type thingy. I'm thinking the doors will be similar to a fridge door for tabac and accessories, while the inside walls will be mostly devoted to racks. That will have to wait for awhile though - after the Lady and I buy a house and don't have to think about moving for a long while.
dermot, I used a router with a 3/4" core box bit and carefully freehanded the cuts. They're not perfect, but close enough. Some pipes sit better than others, but I've never had a rack where that wasn't the case.

That rack is incredible, nicely done. Have you ever wondered why you did rows of 12? My pipe rack is 3 rows of 12 also, is it some kind of standard?

Very nice rack! Well done.

That Guildhall should smoke great, its a Comoys second. I have one and it never disappoints.

cigrmaster, when I started planning it, it so happened that 36 was going to hold all my pipes with room to spare. Well, I ruined that by stupidly buying more pipes. Haha! I have no idea why 12 is a common number. I'd think 7 or 14 would be more common b/c of 7 day sets....
Uberam3rica, the Guildhall does smoke great. I'll probably keep my eye out for more of them.
numbersix, I got the knuckled Bari after I saw your earlier post about your unsmoked Bari purchase. I'm sure glad I read that, b/c it's an awesome pipe. Thanks
