[QUOTE="Mongo, post: 21989, member: 264"] I prefer a sandblasted finish on a pipe. I like the tactile pleasure a blast provides while revealing the beauty of the wood. The depth of the blast isn't the most important characteristic for me; rather, it's how well the blast enhances the appearance of the pipe. A good blast still shows the grain, while enhancing the growth rings of the burl. Shallow blasts can be lovely when done right. I have a Downie sandblast that's not deep at all, but it is gorgeous because it really brings the wood to life. [/QUOTE]
