I received three pipe kits and a book called PIMO's Guide to Pipe Crafting at Home from Vermont Freehand. I ordered a crosscut saw, some rasps and files, and a good deal of sand paper from Lee Valley that will arrive next week. Here are the two uncut blocks of morta (straight and bent) and one of meerschaum.

The meerschaum block I picked looks like it'll make a billiard with a long shank. The morta blocks could make a number of traditional shapes.
I just want to say how much I like this pipe forum, and how much I've been able to extend my enjoyment of pipes since I've joined. You've all been great. Wish me luck!
