My new pipe with metal ring inserted into the bowl.
Block of briar wood was cut into two parts. The counterbore was turned into both pieces. Two parts will be joined together using cylinder on which the metal ring sits. This way the tobacco chamber will be drilled only into the wood.
All parts are glued together using epoxy glue.
Turning makes life easier ;-)
I wated spherical bowl. So I need create a fixture for spherical turning.
Completed with the mouthpiece it is "smokable".
