Skull Pipe

Someone over at Crafthaus was nice enough to let Michael Mueller know about our site and suggested he make a submission. Thanks to both of them we have this little beauty from his German workshop to share as well as a great description...


"This is a 3d printed, fully working tobacco pipe. The head is made with glazed ceramics, the mouthpiece is antique bronze glossy."

"A pipe is definitely a matchmaker. It makes you look distinguished and sexy. Like a successful scientist, a confident playboy, or an experienced sailor."

"Yeah, tobacco is bad for your health, so use bubbles instead! Works even better cause it gives you a great lemon flavor! Of course this depends on the dish soap you use. The ladies will appreciate it!"

I'm just as impressed with the final result as I am with the process of making it.  I might just have to break down and get one to reach that level of sophistication I've been trying to achieve.  Of course I'll use bubbles, too, but I might have to go with the  lavender floral & mint scented soap on our counter here.  Thanks for the great submission, Michael!

That will have to include the incorporation of a trusty survival knife and lanyard to get you through the years of reverting to frontiersman like conditions. Now you have a way to easily identify your knife while being skullified at the same time. JT from Skeleton Knives is here today to offer a set of 5 of his 2012 cast bronze lanyard skull beads. These are cast using the lost wax process and since they are bronze should last many centuries. A sturdy piece of hardware guaranteed to last longer than any brain eating ghoul.

Skull With Humerus

Gresham, Oregon is where Doug Ferrin makes his art. This bronze plaque is a metallic masterpiece titled "Skull With Humerus" that measures a mere 4.5" x 6".

It's taking major restraint for me to not make a bad pun about a skull with "humor"us, but I don't want to detract from the striking work Doug has presented. The fiery finish of the bronze adds a touch of real heat as if it were still hot and pliable. Thanks for presenting your plaque to us, Doug!

Stainless Skull

Sculptor Tobias Luttmer wrote: “Hey the page is really cool. I am a sculptor living in Canada the attached image is of a belt buckle I made. Its stainless steel and bronze.”

Rodeo C says:

Another 8 seconds and that buckle would have been mine. I admit this skull looks as if it has been up too many late nights in a row. Thank you for sharing this awesome piece of work with us.
