 [[File:ElliotNachwalter.jpeg|thumb|left|Elliot Nachwalter]]Between 1980 and 1983, Elliot had a shop in New York where he would make and sell his pipes There then followed an interregnum -- "For three years I was away from my craft, not knowing if I would ever make pipes again" --, after which he returned to Vermont and built Pipestudio. Aim: ''"to creat sensual pipes, beautifully grained that are pleasing to the eye"'' and which would be ''"the creation of sculpted smoking instruments that are functional pieces of art"''.
