[QUOTE="Richard Burley, post: 411126, member: 1690"] I would take more material off the top of the shank where it meets the bowl, thus extending that side of the bowl also. The stem doesn't flow or align with the shank as it is now. Imagine where the draft hole of both is, to see what I mean. I like the stain and don't object to pits in otherwise good wood, which this appears to be. Not crazy about short shanks. (Hey, you asked. I made one similar, with similar results. The "transition" is the most difficult part of pipe shaping, I've been told.) [/QUOTE]
