Finally Made A New Pipe

Sr Mike · 01-16-2012, 06:56 PM

My current project is going to have a good amount of rustication, which I have done on pipes in the past using mini chisels, but they did not have the look and texture I was going for. So I pulled out an unfinished pipe I had sitting around because I cracked the shank as I was working on it. Originally it was going to be a churchwarden. I pulled out different tools and went to town on it and I think it came out pretty good. What do you think?

After I put the stem on it, I realized I have a pipe to break in, the crack should not hinder its smoking abilities. I will now be able to finish my next pipe this weekend.

Now the question I am wrestling with is what should I light up in this pipe?
