| I have been making piipes from kits I bought from Tim West since September. In November, I took a class with Tim. This pipe is the fourth pipe I made and finished it in December. I thought I would share pics here.

| Nice pipe Bob, Great lines, and wonderful finish. Very nice piece of cross grain briar. Looks like she will provide very cool smokes indeed. . Keep up the good work.

| Bob, Very nice! I've really taken a shine to Lovats/Lumberjacks/Canadians etc. Love those long, wooden shanks (and no comments from the peanut gallery here!)

| That is a nice looking pipe Bob, but be careful, that pipemaking can become highly addictive very easily.

| That is really nice work. While I wouldn't call it a lovat, it is pretty none the less. You sure lucked out with that piece of briar.
