That's very reasonable, and I think I could do a bong too.. I'm not sure, I'd have to see if I have a drill bit. The hardest part is finding a piece of wood the right shape. But my grandpa just cut down a huge oak tree today so that shouldn't be hard. Oh and to let you guys know.. these pipes are 100% fully functional and 100% safe to smoke out of. When they are cored I put a bamboo insert in for the bowl. Bamboo will not burn under the heat of a lighter and does not emit toxic fumes. So they are capable of lasting a lifetime as long as you don't light the rest of the pipe on fire. I also can either paint them and then clear coat it or stain it (which is what I'm going to do to mine). I use to paint before I started carving, so I can do a good job painting as well. Let me see if I can find an old painting I did. Ah, here it is! ":cool:
Oh yea, I also do walking sticks/canes. I'm doing one for my Dad for Christmas. It's going to have a laughing skull with flames around it on the handle. The mouth will be cut in to the wood deep enough where your thumb or finger can fit in his mouth to hold it easily. I'm going to do an HD below the skull in fancy letters and then do Harley on one side and Davidson down the other. I'll post a pic of that when I finish, but that'll probably take awhile. I don't know if I'm going to even bother selling the canes cause they take really long to do and are also a bitch to ship... but you know, if the price is right, then I might just make an exception.
EDIT: Oh yea, I did that painting before I started smoking, so I had no idea what a real leaf looked like.. Thats why it has like a bajillion fucking leaves hahaha.
