Latest pipe

Had to claw my way to the right to set up my workshop in the kitchen, Sunday.

It resulted in the tankard/corncob/Flair-hybrid below. My Dremel copy is to weak to drill the tobacco chamber, so I decided to leave it till last, and buy a real hand drill at Clarre-Barre´s on Monday.

When I aired my concerns for T, he promised me I could take his second drill on a long-term loan. Being the economical kind I decided to go this budget way, and also I got an excuse for not finishing the pipe just yet...

Li�l Abners Mom would like this one. Still need to drill tobacco chamber though. Posted by Picasa

The old Brebbia spigot still serves. My first pipe! Posted by Picasa

Holiday season over

Finally I am returning from exile over Xmas. Hope to find some time to start a new pipe project soon. Gave my brother a pipe and some tobacco, hoping to start a new hobby with him.

Cyber pipe stuff

Stumbled across the Lee von Erck pipe site today as I surfed for new ideas. He had a webcam and a chat thingee connected to it. I noticed that "von Erck" was indeed online in the chat but being totally blase of ICQ invitations and spam email etc I assumed that if I was to get an answer it would have to be automated somehow. It wasn't! Had a nice little chat and checked out the man's pipes. You do too!
