recently rusticated estates (very pic heavy)

[jasongone]

these are some of my recent revamps of formerly smooth estate pipes. i didn't include before pics, but i do have some if anyone insists. i also did a bent bulldog of romeowoods, but there aren't any pics of it. i didn't want it to be seen before it is received and i didn't get any before it was shipped home. i'll leave posting that up to RW. opinions welcome and wanted. thanks.
first is an old bulldog. this was actually the second one i ever did, but never really finished. finished him up.

this is an old nameless danish freehand. my uncle picked it up in the Boston area in the seventies. i always loved the shape but the grain was far too boring to pull off smooth.

this is an isreali made mastercraft i just got from lonestar as part of a trade.

this is an italian made poker. this also came from lonestar in the same trade.

this is a small pot i also received from lonestar in an earlier trade. the stem was over turned and he included it as a bonus gift. i did very light carving as the walls were already pretty thin, and straightened up the stem problem.

a digby 9438 (i believe). purchased from lonestar in may with some bulldog estates.

lastly a sasieni made waverly, just recieved from lonestar with the poker and billiard. i love this pipe.

Great work brother! As one pound puppy pipe said to another "I just got my head bashed!"

 

[thekiltedchaplain]

Very nice. What type of tool do you use for the rustication?

 

[menckenite]

You did some great work on those estates and selected a fine choice of tobacco (or tin, I should say) for a prop.

Oh man the anticipation is killing me! And it's awesome to see the different approaches you took with each pipe, the Waverly particularly. I'll be posting a bushel of pics when I get mine.

[jasongone]

thanks all.

thekiltedchaplain - i use the dremel sir.

william - thanks. the mac barren navy flake is one of my favorites. i was smoking it in the waverly when i decided to take all the new ones outside and take some pictures.

romeowood - i pm'd you the tracking number. i think you will like what yours became. the waverly is a favotite of mine as well. and the mastercraft billiard smokes amazingly.

the VFQ you sent me, two straight bulldog basket pipes, and a lovet are being worked on now.

Nice work!!! I kept thinking about a rustication of the continents... That would be cool!!! What stain do you use? I might have to get some estates and give it a try??
