New guy on the block
Hello everyone,
My name is Brian Ruthenberg and I am a pipemaker out of Michigan. I like to smoke VA and VA/ Per. in the rejects that I make, when they come that way that is! :).
I have made pipes now for going on 8 yrs. It is a great hobby/profession that I enjoy alot. My website is www.briarart.com
Thanks
Brian

Some real nice pipes you got there.
If it can't cut, it's a pipe!
Those sure are some nice pipes...a little out of my price range for right now...but I can drool nonetheless...
anyway...post often!
Cheers,
Josh
Good to have you with us, Brian. I'm hoping to see a bulldog pop up on your site one of these days :)

I've browsed your site a couple of times before. Great looking craftsmanship there.
“The pipe marks the point at which the orangutan ends and man begins.” -Ben Jonson
What is a bootleg bon vivant, you may ask? Well, it’s kinda like a monkey stealing a soldier’s last MRE. You know, that feeling you get when something is forbidden, yet you have to sample the best of the best. Not saying an MRE is all that great or anything, but it’s prime rib to a monkey who is stuck with nuts, berries, and bananas all the damn time. ~ BBVV
Welcome Brian. You need no introduction here. Your blasts are among the finest currently produced!
Best,
