Couple of impulse buys since I already had an order together on the devil's site.

The CAO smells amazing. Haven't cracked open the John Bull yet. For $3 each how bad can they be?

OnePyroTec · 10-11-2014, 09:21 PM

Don't discount the John Bull because of the price. It is actually pretty good IMHO. I smoke it over any of the D.E. tins at 4X's the price.

These came off of the *Bay late last week. Top to bottom: Charatan's Make Perfection 481oc; an unknown billiard and an unknown bulldog (purchased together):

The Charatan was cleaned and stored away about 20yrs ago. It will receive a proper cleaning and polish. The other two I had purchased to clean, ream, and give a good polish to, with hopes that they will have a better look thereafter to sell at a later date (maybe). I'll post some "after" pix when I've completed these tasks...

Yeah, nice pick-up!

Flynnster · 10-13-2014, 11:20 PM

Really like that bulldog Mark! Can't wait to see the after pics, and kinda hope you do decide to sell it!

Subvet642 · 10-14-2014, 08:08 AM

It's a sickness, really. I just can't stop buying pipes and stuff!

Next to arrive at my door will be this sweet little prince from Capri. They're pretty nice for a maker of basket pipes.

I have today and tomorrow off so I'm gonna spend some time breaking in a couple of my other new ones with some Ashton Gold Rush. I've never smoked a straight Virginia before, but I'm looking forward to it.

MarkinAZ · 10-14-2014, 10:36 AM

We've known of your sickness for quite some time now Darren

Nice looking pipe

Thanks Mark! I find myself gravitating toward the "prince" shape. The small bowl size just suites me and it's easy to smoke it down to ash. Next on my list is a spigot or some kind of Army mount. Funny they're not called Navy mounts: it seems that Sailors can smoke and fight at the same time.

.

That is a very nice looking pipe for sure. I like the way the stem is made for it. I haven't seen one like that before. Congrats. The Sickness don't go away, You can put it in check for a little while. But with my little collection there are always more pipes I could buy.. and will. I like collecting them. I think they are Art. Best part is they can be smoked.

Awesome Pipe for sure

It is called PAD (Pipe Acquisition Disorder). Scratching the itch caused by it can also cause one to fall into an equally disabling TAD (Tobacco Acquisition Disorder).

Be careful.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

I've been dealing with SAD (Stogie Acquisition Disorder) for a while, too.

Subvet642 · 10-17-2014, 11:01 PM

I did it again. This one shows up tomorrow:

The Capri with the pinched stem had a slight right-hand bend to the stem so I'm sending it back. The one above is its replacement/up-grade. The funny thing is, the wife isn't sweating the expenditures.

Gee, I wonder what the hell she's been buying.

ApexAZ · 10-14-2014, 03:04 PM

Nice pipe, Darren! Yours too, Mark.

I've got a commissioned pipe on order and that will be my last pipe for a while, hopefully.

Oh, you must be psyched! What'sit gonna look like?

ApexAZ · 10-14-2014, 03:38 PM

I am having an upcoming pipe artist here in Phoenix named Jerry Crawford make me a straight billiard with high contrast stain and a saddle stem. I'm looking forward to seeing how it comes out. I also plan to buy a Tom Eltang pipe sometime next year, but that's a ways off.

You can find some of Jerry's work at his website http://crawfordpipes.com.
