Today s work consists of two special order sandblasts for Glenn Brooks of Recollect Pipes. Two of my favorite shapes in a tan blast finish. The first is a Gold Apple, ( I m smoking mine as I write this ) and Mel's Billiard. The blasts were done by my good buddy, Paul Bonaquisti.
The Gold Apple
The next special order is a collaboration of American pipe makers . Trevor Talbert provided the design, I made the pipe and Paul did the highly defined blasting. SOme of you will recognize Trevor s hawksbill for Art Ruppelt, with a minor change in the angle of the shank. ( I hope.... )
The final SO is a customers design. He wanted a large egg, in either straight or bent, I thought the bent would be more comfortable so I went with that style. Pipe is finsihed in Black & Tan.
The last pipe started out to be a special order; a copy of a Dunhill EC. I made three onw of which should suit the bill for a tan blast finish. This one was just too nice to blast. It s available on the web catalog as FW 40 ( FW= featherweight)
