[QUOTE="Bobostro61, post: 260744, member: 2778"] Thanks. I know I could have done better on it, but it was a practice pipe. Lots of "firsts" on it. First bent pipe I've made, first time I've drilled my own airway and tobacco chamber, first time I've bent a stem, first time with wood other than briar. The airway hole I drilled a little off center. Although you can't tell from the pic, the stem is just a little bit crooked. Also, this wood is softer than I expected. They advertised it as very hard and great for turning. You can dent the wood by running your fingernail across it. The real test I guess will be to put some tobacco in it and give it a smoke. Hopefully it won't taste like a camp fire! [/QUOTE]
