A few weeks back I had my birthday and my wife surprised with a pipe carving kit from Man Crates. For what it was, it was a fun little project for me to do. I enjoyed the process of taking a block down to a finished pipe. It has its flaws and such but none the less I think it's quite handsome. If anyone has a hankering to do a project pipe I think this would be one avenue to consider.
