Smoking Pipe Inferno

qquake · Dec 24, 2021

My second Smoking Pipe from PSI. The blank is an inlace acrylester called Inferno, from Woodturningz. I made this one for another friend who occasionally partakes.

I didn't paint the blank or tube, but I did color the epoxy, just in case.

Very nice. I like the colors in the blank. If possible let me know how your friend likes the kit.

This is actually my second. I'll let you know what both friends think.

I like the idea of coloring the epoxy. Such a simple solution to a oft times unsuccessful attempt when trying to paint the tube.
Brilliant, give this man a Guiness

If I know or suspect that the blank is translucent, I'll go ahead and paint the blank and tube, as well as color the epoxy.

Good idea. I have heard that paint can come off when the tube is inserted into the blank. Coloring epoxy is also used for epoxy coating on fishing rod wrappings.

Both friends love the pipes. They work well, and the bowl doesn't get hot.
