 looks good bud! It gives me flashbacks of back when I was doing arrowheads for the KITH. Big hands trying to do micro filing. Last edited by B.Finnigan; 12-18-2005 at 02:36 PM.

HeHehe, naw, quit smokin yrs. ago, but, it won't smoke tho. It's bored but only for looks. Hah, if I thought drawfilin it was tough, can you imagine drilling a 3/16" stem without coming thru the side... You'd suck your brains out

Neato
Very neat. There are collectors who specialize in minatures. I made a knife and a small anvil for a collector from Reno NV years ago.

Uh I cant remember what gas is produced from copper burning but If you where able to suck through it I wouldnt reccomend it. After these last few articals I am thinking of making myself a pipe hawk. Has anybody ever tried them with tobaco? If so what quality of smoke was it with an english style pipe tobacco? I preffer meershaum myself but such high maintanence.
