BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
Contest interest
- Thread starter Grrrrr609
- Start date
Yea let's do away with the prizes and do the contest for bragging rights. No time limits no prizes. We can just start a thread and post up pics of our restyled pipes. I picked up couple drill bits and router bit today to work on a couple maple, cherry, walnut pipes too. I will post them in that thread also.
I humbly advise against such behavior. I have plenty of smokes, trust me.
Posting to follow this, I will do one eventually but my workshop needs to be finished first, so maybe this winter...
Looking forward to everyone's cobfoolery

Well I finally got myself a cob ordered.
OK Grrr, where are ya? This was a long time coming but this morning I decided to get back out in the shop, make a powder horn and finish that cob-foolery,
First, I turned the cob on my lathe, cob is VERY hard and chips while it is being turned, so I didnt do too much on that end, then I turned the top rim out of cow horn, since I have so much laying around. I wanted a calabash look but I could not find a hunk of horn that would let it be done. The bottom is a hunk of deer antler, turned in the shape of a finial, I filed the stem down so that a 7MM rem. mag. would slip over it and fixed it in place, drilled the primer end out to accept the origiunal stem that came with the pipe. I gotta say, its weird looking
