| Does the stem actually fit to the antler or is there some internal system through the antler? Just curious, I like it Brother. |

I used delron in the antler so the bit goes in it now it wont get lose by removing the bit then I countersunk the bit just a little bit since the antler was slanted. Thank you for looking Best Regards Richard |

| That's a really nice pipe Richard! I would imagine it was a challenge to find just the right size antler to match the flow of the lines of the pipe. |

I guess I got lucky last Sunday my wife and I went to a flea market and there was a guy selling antler. I hope to make a few tampers from the points but the buttons was small enough I thought I would try and use it on a pipe. It was a lot of fun making this pipe, thank you for looking. Best Regards Richard |

| Lovely looking pipe there Richard, really like the use of the antler. It looks to set the pipe off wonderfully.
Nicely done Sir. |

| Seldom see antler as a stem accent, which is a shame because it looks great. Really like what you've done with it Richard, and the pipe is no slouch either!  Cheers, RR |

| I thank you all for the kind words. I do like to use other materials such as the antler, horn and bamboo sometimes I get lucky. Thanks again for looking.
Best Regards

| I can't remember ever seeing a pipe with the antler. I like it a lot and think this is one of your best ideas. Keep it up.  AJ |

| Thank you brothers for the kind words. I give it to a old friend of mine so looking forward to seeing how she smokes. I still have a few antlers left so I will try to make a few more just for the fun of it.
Best Regards
