Antler pipe

"Trigger"

This is the second pipe I made back in 2000, I wanted a pipe that would stand up by itself. The stem is also made from antler. Looks cool but is a pain in the ass to transport. That's why I started to make the Froto and Gandolph line.

My first pipe went to a friend up in NH, he wanted a pipe for ice fishing. Long story short, it fell into one of the holes in the floor of the ice house...

Cheers,
Mike

What the heck are a Froto and Gandolph?

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Froto and Gandolph

When I started to make antlered pipes, I told my buddy that I will make him one if he named it.

Gandolph was the first and Froto was the second....

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Never seen any of the movies or read the books. I had enough trouble getting girls to like me growing up. I didn't want to make things worse by being a fan of LOTR. I'm assuming the names are from that series?
