Semi-bent billiard with squared shank

[bluenoser]

Been working on another billiard for my next pipe making attempt and came up with this. Nice little semi-bent billiard that I decided to different up by making the shank and part of the stem some what squared up. Pretty happy with the turn out. Couple coats of black dye then a couple of dark brown gave it a nice color, then put the shine to it. Enough rambling, here's a couple crappy cell phone pics (really need to learn to use a real camera...)










And with this pipe I'm trying to figure out how to add another tier...
