@KA9FFJ, you are very kind, sir. I haven't tried it yet, but will probably do so soon. I have some Green Dragon from Country Squire that I'd love to fill it with. Will let you know.
@mfresa Excellent looking pipe and nice detail. This place is loaded with talent. I just thought I was going to be rubbing elbows with fellow pipe smokers - I had no idea I'd also be surrounded by talented artisans.
@ghostsofpompeii I learned everything I know about pipe making from @Corey562. Figured I had to try the craft as it is a good break from computer work. My tastes are pretty peculiar so I don’t expect my stuff to appeal to a wide audience. But thanks for noticing.
It's a Ropp Balzac, possibly one of the smallest bowls out there, but in cold weather (it was 33 today) maybe a small bowl is ok. What did you guys get yourselves?
@mfresa NICE! I got a Dremel flex shaft to help when rustication pipes, and a $25 gift card for P&C... Probably spend it on tobacco because I already have PLENTY of pipes... (don't tell my wife I said that)...
Nope, as SWMBO has forbidden the purchase of any more pipes.
I figure that if I can still occasionally buy tobacco, and if I can put a fan in the window and smoke indoors on Friday evenings for pipe club, I’m OK with it.🥴
