  1. Hi Mark, these are really great looking pipes…. and from what I have heard they smoke better than they look !

  4. What about a pipe design that is a sitter on the front side of the bowl (to where the stem sticks up), but it looks like the pipe bowl is melting onto the surface…maybe…hehe

  6. @Balkovecpipes Dude! I almost said it reminded me of a Castello! hahaha I also dug that Anne Julie Stanwell in your Stem vid. I didn’t know she had designed one for them. Cool stuff.

  9. @pipeheadOR Thanks bro. Glad you like them. Making pipes from scratch is allot of work. It’s nice when people like you appreciate them.,

  10. @misterpipesmoker Thanks Bro. I need to make a set of twin pokers for you and the wife someday. I am really cutting some nice poker shapes now days. I have been streamlining them a bit so there not just a straight cylinder like everyone else’s poker. They feel just right in the hand that way. Just an angled cut on the bottom of the bowl, makes a huge difference when holding it in your hand. Thanks for watching,

  11. @astroman2112 Thanks for watching James, and thanks for the kind words. I fell in love with the nosewarmer. I Always wanted a pipe that size and style. I just couldn’t sell it, I had to have it for myself. I based it on the Castello #10. A pat on the back coming from a guy with such a great collection means allot to me Bro.,
    Thanks again,
    Mark

  14. Great work Mark but then we don’t expect anything less from you. I feel inspired to get back into my garage and start carving, if only my wife didn’t have my day planned already :)
    Cheers,
