wow those are every bit as amazing as any pipe I've ever seen.  The question is...how do they smoke?
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

i'm really slow (still learning) and i don't use any power tools so the answer is way to long... i probably average like 60 hrs per pipe.  i cant wait to get some real tools so that i can make them in a reasonable amount of time.

 

and thanks everyone for the kind words.  here are a couple pics of the first one as i was working on it:

They are all really nice pieces of work.
But I really liked the name "Wish Stealer". It had a Native American ring to it. -Brlesq

A wise geek once told me that moving up from a daily smoke to a weekly or even bi-monthly smoke would be worth it, if I could learn how to appreciate a really really good cigar. -southernrun

I don't know squat about pipes, but I really like the look of #2.

Good Work.

When I saw pipa and pic in the title of this thread I was hoping for pictures of Pippa Middleton. :-)

No, those are very, very nice pipes.
I'm right 98% of the time.  Who cares about the other 3%?
