In the work shop we have our own jobs I turn the bowls and fit the rod vulcanite and shape it to the pipe, if I had time I would pumice them or Dolly would do it she took over from there, I only got the pipe back when it was stained and finished, ready for me to put the silver on, each silver band is fitted to each pipe as an individual made to fit that pipe only.

<blockquote><q>We had our method of Oil-Curing. We applied Oil to the outside and the inside of the bowl, that was because when Dolly was at Dunhill's factory, she worked in the finishing department and got such a high finish on the pipes they wanted to know how she did it. The bowls had already gone through Dunhills' oven oil curing system, but to her it was not enough, because it could not get the shine that she wanted,  then, she oiled the bowl on the outside and the inside to get a better finished. She left Dunhill and came to work with me. Because of this process, we found out the smokers liked the taste when light up their pipe - they said there was no aftertaste and it had a sweet taste doesn't matter what tobacco they used. We have carried it on from there.</q> Les Wood. Jan, 2020.</blockquote>
