The top left side one, that's panel shape. I did sandblast and briar was quite soft. So result of sandblast was nice, sametime top line of the shank lost shape. That's difficult point of sandblast. The pipe will be mine...

Top right, I love the shape. It's small but very nice grain. Unfortunatly there are 4 spots, I will sandblast. I can see very nice ring grain already. So it will be very nice sandblast pipe.

Last one is horn shape. Sametime side will show birdseyes. I just start to work on iit. I just hope it will be nice smooth finish.

The bamboo pipe was done. The ring grain is nice, just off center. But I like the shape.

Right side upper is almost done. I did stamping and works. On monday, I will polish and done. I can see 4 small sandpit, but I really wanted to done by smooth. I just hope, these sandpit will not be problem.

On left side, the black sandblast pipe will be also done next week. I just need to work on mousepiece and polish.

Last one will be smooth (I hope). I just need to do final sanding before color. If everything works well, it would be very interesting pipe for me.

The bottom one and right side one is finally done. The sandblast one has really nice ring grain.

Next week I will finish right side upper one. I just need to find good time to concentrate for stamping.

Left side 2 pipes need to have more work. The result of sandblast was very very nice. It will be brown color. The bamboo pipe need to work a lot. There is a spot, but I will finish by smooth. Becasue, grain is also of center sametime grain is very very beautiful. If sooth does not work after color, I will sandblast.
