Welcome!

Welcome to my world of pipes. On these pages you will see some of what goes on in my workshop. A bit of work-in-progress, mess-ups (they do happen!) and also some other pipe-related posts.
I love talking about and discussing pipes, so feel free to contact me at charl.chillfactor@gmail.com.
Should you wish to have a look at my pipes, please drop in at my website (http://goussardpipes.com/).

This little pipe is a treasure: it fits the hand as if moulded from it and also is a real pleasure to look at. The stunning flamegrain on the sides and front of bowl just emphasize it's beauty. There are a couple of sandpits on the bottom of the bowl and also a surface crack on the shank, but I couldn't push myself to rusticate. I think it was worth the while.
