I have access to a blasting rig, once I pull the trigger and buy some more tools for carving, and then actually try my hand at carving, I'll be blasting the shit out of them pipes.
Thank you all for the kind words, I don't own any Volcano shaped pipes until now ;-) and since I made the other one from Apricot wood for my Uncle T's bday next month...it was too much of a tease for me to not have one as well :D
