2009 Edition Pipe decisions

[DrDubzz]

Ok, here are 5 pipes that are the best examples I could find on the website of what people said they wanted. I am going to have you all vote for the shape you would like the best (we're not voting on the exact pipe). Also, I will have an option for smooth or rusticated, please choose one (so JM knows how many of each).

I counted 15 defintely and 6-7 maybes on the other thread, based on this, I want to set an initial limit of 20 pipes. I would rather him need to pick up 1 or 2 extra later, than for him to have 3-4 leftover pipes that he can't sell because it has our "stamp" on it. feel me?

Please vote (select all that apply) on ONE pipe, and ONE finish. (pipes are 1-5 from left to right)

Also, I will include a choice for size of the pipe, please choose medium or large. again, there will be variability, but it'll be a good indicator of size for your pipe.

You know I'm in Tim. Thanks for all the work getting this set up.

I voted for pipe4/rusticated/medium

I'm still in! I voted for a pipe 4, Smooth, large but medium will do just fine.

Oh yeah, post up any suggestions for our club signature

CA09, CAPF09, etc.

I like CA/09 OR CA2009
I think that "CA09" will look too much like "CAO" with a nine when carved in so it must be separate some how.

I agree, CA/09 is fine.
If not too long, Asylum 09 would be perfect, IMO.

Pipe 4/Smooth/medium, although I also kind of like pipe #2

CA/09 is also cool, but I too like the idea of Asylum 2009 or 09

Pipe #4, smooth, medium for me

[CHRONO14]

Pipe #4, Smooth, Larger preferably but I'm ok with a medium. Thanks for setting this up.

I like Pipe #2/Smooth/Large. I say on whatever pipe we get we get the rim of it rusticated. That way you don't have to worry about burning the top.

Asylum 09 or CA2009

Since Boswell dates the pipe when he carves it, maybe just Asylum for the club ingraving? I don't know, just throwing that out there.

this was my thought as well (even though I initially put 09 in my suggestions)

it will be dated with his signature, then we could have asylum, and the individual's initials

cool deal, guys. makes me wish i liked pipe tobacco better

Something to think about as well, this will be the first edition of the Clup Pipe. Should that be reflected in the signature?

Something like this...
____________________________
------J.M. Boswell 09--------
First Edition Asylum Club Pipe
-----Individual's Initials------
____________________________

That will be along the bottom of the shank.

I like that, but this will be hand scribed on each pipe, I don't know that all of that will fit legibly

it'll say J.M. Boswell xx-xx-09 for sure, as it does on all of his pipes

the rest would need to be a word or two at most I imagine

Looks good but if it needs to be shortened, maybe:

J.M. Boswell 09
F.E. Asylum C.P.
Initials

How about

J.M Boswell xx.xx.09
Asylum #1 (or Asylum 1ed.)
Initials
