My Wife bought me a briar block that she owed me for losing my favorite pipe, and with little knowlege of pipemaking teckniques I came up with this. I am very pleased with it. The stem is Ebano Ipe Verde, with a pickguard accent, about an inch and a half tenon, and a modified bit that came with the block. The top of the bowl is the natural edge of the briar burl. No finish, just sanded and buffed with carnuba wax, which quickly wore off with the heat. Took two evenings, about 6hours total. Lots of fun! I could easily get addicted to this, but I'm refraining because I don't have time for another hobby!
