Viking that I cleaned up

[kf4bsb]

Hello all, I thought I would share some pics of a nice little viking I just cleaned up. The chrome is all intact and I buffed the stem and shank. The bowl was originally yellow with a white base coat. As you can see, I took off most of the old finish, just leaving a little in the low spots on the wood. I know some people don't like the look, but I do. I then buffed and waxed the bowl. The inside had a nice thin carbon layer, not cake, so I didnt ream it. I did clean out the inside of the steam no shank and the metal bowl.
This pipe is for sale by the way.

Great job! Love the Art Deco feel on the bowl.

Nice! I enjoy my bent Viking from time to time.

Not my style, but I'm sure it will be a fine smoking pipe for you. Looks like you did a great job! Enjoy.
