The 5 grand in blastin gear and mediums ain't hurtin either. It's true you can make a pipe with really just hand tools, but when it comes to blasting a lot of it is equipment based. This in no way takes away from Rad's skill... likes that even possible. But he brings a gun to a knife fight :)

Thanks Gents for all the kind words..was out smoking some C&D's BLB in a clay this morning while looking over the new Rad..still thinking about what types of blends should be smoked in her (I always give this some extra thought, but worth the results in the end) with the specs below it really might be calling for English/Balkan blends or perhaps VaPer/VaBur ones..I have to also take inventory of my current pipe:type of blend ratio which I also factor in :puffpipe:
All part of the fun, mystery & the journey of pipe smoking...

What a great way to start the weekend. That is a beauty and I hope you get many years of great smoking from it.
Cheers :puffy:

The more I see pipes with a beautiful natural finish, the more I want one...

smoking, that is an awesome looking Rad, way to go. I know you are going to love it. I would try a Vaper or Vabur in that puppy first to see if you like it. If you have a flake I would try that. Glad I could be of help. Let us know hot it smokes.
