Wow that's quite a large piece of morta! Very cool design, congrats!Moretti / El Rincon de la Pipa
Thank you @ak2000, for your guidance in getting this commissioned volcano carved.
Andy informed me Moretti will gladly shape any pipe to specs at cost (no markup).
This practice is unheard-of in woodworking.

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 the next few weekends 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.
What's in your bowl today
- Thread starter La Chupacabra
- Start date
Thank you, sir.
I asked Marco to satisfy three conditions:
1. Weigh over 100 grams.
2. A rocker foot, with no stability.
3. No hard edges on the bowl (volcano).
I made one annoying mistake. Forgot to ask for an equally large chamber (in my defense, I figured he'd use his largest size chamber bit).
The damn chamber is way undersized for my liking. Though, not at all Marco's fault. This one is on me.
Never been, nor will I ever be, a clincher. I like a big fat heavy pipe when smoking.
Thanks again for your help, Andy. YOU made this happen.

Oh. I did not consider that/know it was an issue. Morta doesn't dissipate heat comparatively?
Funny, I just got through talking with the wife about having it bored out via a pipesmith.
Guess I'll nix that idea. Makes me feel a little better now.
Thank you, Andy.
Good looking Peterson.
I just love that stuff!

To the ones we can save, and those we can't.
That is a gorgeous pipe!
