Wished i could afford one,that right there is at least a 300.00 pipe..I made one from a badger skull once,drilled a hole in the top of his head,took an old car antenna and extended it down to the stem after i took the antenna apart,which i made from an old oak cane,cut the hook off went to a lumber store they sliced it in half for,the lowed the blade made a groove in each side then glued it back together,stuck it in the rear of the skull,marked where the hollow antenna would hit,drilled the hole in the stem i now had,left the antenna sticking above the noggin a bit and got some clay from hobby shop that hardens when you heat in the oven,shaped a bowl and pulled the screen out of the kitchen sink facet made a deer antler mouthpiece,wrapped in rattlesnake skin and rabbit fur,hung a nice set of beads and claws under the stem Wala badger skull pipe and it worked like a champ..I was driving country roads one day found the badger dead on the side of the road,looked like he had been there at least three summers and the sun did all the work as far as bleaching and such dry as a bone ya might say..My uncle thought i was crazy,but he came by the house one day and he smoked a pipe and stuck some cherry blend in it and it smoked nice..I sold it at a yard sell for 75.00 wish i had it now for my western man cave.
