[QUOTE="Briar Spirit, post: 409585, member: 2669"] Thank you Rande, the absence of the rings does play on me to be quite frank, they do go a long way to defining this particular style of pipe, I've read several suggestions of doing then and have tried a few but have had little success. My biggest annoyance with this pipe was the stem I used, due to the lack of better tools to use I must resort to using preformed stem and these awful preformed Ebonite stems arrive in the most appalling condition. This one had a serious air bubble hole and some air bubble 'blotches' is the best I can think to describe them near the mortise face so I was forced to do a chair leg groove there, looks okay but this style really shouldn't have that done to the stem. Meh, I'm not a man of means so must make the best of what I have to hand. [/QUOTE]
