Subject: Mark Tinsky's pipes, another encomium

Dear Steve,

        I want to compliment the pipe-making skill of Mark Tinsky and
recommend it to the group.  He has made me two pipes, one after my drawing
and another a variation of his own design.  Both show very fine handiwork.
His style reminds me strongly of the larger Butera pipes, and the smoking
characteristics of these pipes exceed those of the Buteras I've
tried--slow-burning, dry, tobacco flavors highlighted.  He is a pleasure to
work with--able to take an idea and go with it.  He's in the Guide, but for
quick reference, his email is:

        Compliments and thanks as always for the work you do on PD.
-John
