Started a rusticated pot today. It had a few bad sand pits so it ended up rusticated. I hope to have it done tomorrow.

kbareit..........Ken, that’s going to be a great looking Pot style pipe once finished. I’m impressed with your rustication work👍👍👍 I bet making pipes, working with your hands helps relieve stress........always did for me. Looking forward to seeing pictures once this pipe is finished.

Wow! All three look great! I especially like the aluminum tube on. I’ve been looking to add one of those to my collection. Keep up the awesome work!

I just got some stainless tube in for when I make that style pipe again. The aluminum is nice but is too soft and bends easily. The stainless has better rigidity and can be polished like a mirror and not tarnish.

Great work, you are on a roll! The bit looks very comfortable, thin but with something to hold on to.

Nice work, Ken. I don't know that any pipes maker could boast that level of success with their first pipe.

Ken, stunning. I love#4. If you ever need a customer, I’d bite on something similar.

Good work. A coloured stem always adds a little something as does the smooth burgundy rim on pipe #3.

Good job, Ken. Did you use stainless for the "shank"/metal part of the stem?
