Commissions

Sat May 27, 2006, 5:18 PM
Hello, thanks for stopping by my Deviant page. My name is William Lane, and I have been a pipe fanatic for several years now, and my collection just keeps growing, and it will, I am sure, in the years to come. About a year and a half ago, I got really interested in the aspect of actually carving my own pipes, and just recently, for other people, as they seemed to enjoy the aesthetics of my freehand shapes. If you are interested in the prices for my commissions, please specify beforehand what you are aiming for, and I will give you a narrow estimate of what the cost will be. factors include: Engineering, extensive labour for extensions (if needed) and a few other variables such as what type of stem you want, etc.


The classique pipes feature no patina (rough portion found on the top of most freehand pipes), and are mostly done by mostly mechanical apparatuses. Little or no hand work is involved in these pipes, however, for the price, they are an exceptional bargain, as pipes like these can be $35.00 or even more on average.

The Arborea line features much more creativity, and each piece is a unique work of art, as no two freehand pipes are or can be exactly the same. These pipes, if priced on the professional market, would go for a minimum of $150.00 but they are not priced on the professional market, so you benefit from getting a great pipe, and I benefit as well from the experience.
The pipes are made from the HIGHEST QUALITY grecian and sardinian briar wood, and will last hundreds of years as family heirlooms or keepsakes. It is an investment that will last a lifetime and offer hours of enjoyment, relaxation, and contemplation.

Hey Willikinzikerz. ^^
If I could figure out how to friend fellow deviants on here I would.
:iconbulgot:
do you use lathe or drill press to making pipes?

i would like make my first pipe, but i haven't lathe, only drill press.
:iconarborea-bruyeres:
I tend to use my artistic judgement, though i recommend a lathe to beginners since it's steadier, plus you can us the chuck to mount buffing wheels as well. Saves alot of cash. Cheers!
