Thanks Aaron. I was originally copying a Rad Davis pipe but when I went out to the shop, I left the picture in the house. It was about 2 or 3 o' clock in the morning and 26 degrees, so instead of going back after the picture I just winged it. His bowl was huge. By my bowl being so small it threw the whole proportions of the pipe off. I couldn't stand it so I went back and redid the things pointed out to me on the pipe forum. It was a good learning experience.

It's hard to believe. If you stare at a photo of a pipe (only on FTT, mind you) for long enough, it might materialize in your hand.

This baby is light weight and easy to clinch, but with a 2" deep bowl for a nice, long smoke. It stands perfectly on a tabletop when either empty or packed with tobacco.

As a pirated pipe, it of course provides no royalty to knucklehead. But he's the one who posted the original in the first place. It's his own fault if people download his pipes.

If you stare at the original photo, and a pipe appears in your hand, I'm not sure if mine will disappear from my hand. (I think it's a quantum entanglement, neutrino sort of phenomenon.) So if you decide to give this technique a try, please stare at a different pipe.

I think there's mirror image universes, the pipe in your hand is from the left handed universe. The pipe in the photo is obviously from the right.

Or perhaps just random theory?

I'm happy for you but wait to see the olive wood and try to materialize it.
If I would be proud owner of the new pipe what am I gonna smoke? Burley with milk and honey?
I would ask you for some recipe how to make good smelly tobacco for my pipe.

rainmax,
Ah, the English language. "Good smelly" implies something that stinks. "Good smelling" is the opposite. But I have to congratulate you on the excellent English of your posts.

For me, milk and honey would be suitable for coating the interior of a new pipe, to ease the break-in period.

There are numerous tobacco casing recipes in various forum posts. I'll post one in a suitable thread.

Knucks,
Google Translate seems to think you said "all my work smells faucet tobakovec." Hmmm.

I do love the pipe. Finders keepers.
