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.

This is a delightful little pipe made from the wood of an orange tree. The wood of orange is quite light, very nice to work with and finishes to a deep shine. Smoking will give you a slightly orange taste as well. This pipe have a couple of surface flaws on the outside of the bowl.
