Accessories Phattpiggies Wood Shed

@Stevenski I've no idea what's been asked for but I'll get plenty of visuals.
@LesPlenty my only concern is how it's going to drill. Fingers crossed there's no wander.

Little something different.
The small tap is for my regular stems, the largest one has been used for the open twists with glass condensers. Had to buy a new one for this job.

Blackwood and Coolibah with aluminium accents.

I heard that the TERA taste very outstanding!
Is it true?
I love your ideals!

Thanks @Aezhenn I'll be doing another soon

@ataxian I've used it but not enough to comment. I've heard good things about the Tera as well. It's very ergonomic.

A bit of Abalone and acrylic. You can see me going back to the MP joint a couple of times. It didn't all pull up tight so there is a gap in the joint, remedy in the works and it's an easy and familiar job.

 

[momofthegoons]

Wow.... that Abalone is fucking insane! I'd love to see you use some of that in one of your longer 'old fashioned cigarette holder' looking pieces.... I think that would be too cool. And very Art Deco....

Dammit phatts.... dammit....

 

[phattpiggie]

@momofthegoons other than the easy repair it turned out way better than I first thought it would.
My homage to the cigarette holders I've gormed off at in the past, that one is around 100mm and I agree it could go longer.
Gives me a bit to play with reshaping the MP end, Deco was used to describe it by someone else.
Looks like an investment in Abalone is on the cards.

And

Absolutely beautiful Phatts. You continue to blow me away & I am pretty jaded these days.


Edit

In no way have I been able to capture the beauty in this Vapor Asylum themed piece. It is like there are ribbons of steel wool running through it & the stem is just pure fire. I love it.

 

[phattpiggie]

@Stevenski good fun doing those stems. It's great surprising folk.

Thank you and hopefully I'll be able to keep you entertained for a while longer.
I've got some cracking ideas still to come as and when time, space and funds allow.

Glad you like the stem, very well travelled blanks. From the US to me then all the way to yours.

I will dig out the pics and video of them being turned.

Well I spoke to soon on the 'easy repair', it probably would have been if I'd done this before. But I haven't.
Powdered aluminium which I eventually made into a paste with CA glue.
Hard work on a cylinder and I wasn't sure how it would turn out. It's taken on an a patina which is in keeping with the original theme.


No fun setting up a saw outside at this time of year so I bought a small compound mitre saw today which sits nicely on the bench next to my lathe.
Then had a play. Chestnut with Blackwood MP.

 

[momofthegoons]

Really like the sleekness of the Chestnut piece @phattpiggie.

And god that abalone.....

DUDE that top photo is way cool!

 

[phattpiggie]

Thank you @ataxian it was a proper pain in the backside to do but where would the fun be if everything was easy.

Got a couple more pieces to do around this theme.
Blackwood Pawn which will end up sat on a little pedestal.

 

[momofthegoons]

LOL..... so @phattpiggie ...you gonna make a custom interchangeable Dynavape chess set?

 

[phattpiggie]

@momofthegoons oh to be a fly on the wall when I ask @Pipes for 64 induction heaters

 

[Marlon Rando]

Or you pre-full all the caps, and when you “take” a piece, you have to clear the cap. First person to win, or last person standing, wins.
