you da man! You deserve it!

CHRONO14 · 06-16-2009, 02:33 PM

Tim thanks again for setting this up, glad we could help out and hope you enjoy the pipe.

SSatVT · 06-17-2009, 06:44 PM

She has arrived!!!

I love how mine turned out. A nice, dark and rich color. The smooth parts have a mute grain definition and it goes wonderfully with the rusticated sections. When I talked to Dan originally I told him to just do with it what they wanted, that I just wanted some smooth.

Anyway, ON TO THE PICTURES!

What came in the box:

And some of the pipe:

And my humble pipe collection:

Now if it would only stop raining long enough for me to sit outside and enjoy a bowl in it...

06-17-2009, 07:17 PM

Oooooooohhhh....that's nice!

06-17-2009, 07:18 PM

Nice!
I like the shape, the way the rim is cut, and love those thick walls... The partial rustication is cool, too.
I'm just not crazy about the stem, but I bet it will smoke like a champ.

Oh, boy, this is exciting... how much did it cost, Seth?

How did your pipe ship? UPS, Fed-Ex, or USPS? I live out in Oregon, so if it was sent UPS or Fed-Ex I may have to wait awhile, but if it was USPS then hopefully I can get it tomorrow or Monday. Also, does anyone know if on a "smooth" option of this pipe, the top of the bowl will still be rustic like the one posted? I love the top part being rustic, but was hoping the rest would be smooth on my pipe.

Also, I love the shape of the pipe, and the flat bottom for easy resting.

I kind of like that stem, mostly because it isn't the most popular choice out there.
If I remember correctly he charged me $118 for it, but I don't have my check book handy and they still haven't cashed my check.

It came to me via UPS, and I think they ship everything that way. For me though, UPS is faster for packages coming from outside of Virginia, but USPS is faster in-state.

It is supposed to be sunny (and hot) tomorrow, so hopefully I will get a chance to start breaking her in.

that looks great, I'll be curious to see how everyone's turns out

Dukeuni · 06-19-2009, 01:41 PM

I wish I had a tracking number, would love to know where my pipe is at. Getting that pipe today would be GREAT!

Nabinger16 · 06-19-2009, 01:46 PM

I talked with JM yesterday... I should have both of mine on Wednesday!!

ditto, I'll be out of town all next week, as will my wife, I don't want it to sit on my doorstep all week

fissure · 06-19-2009, 10:55 PM

Got mine yesterday

Smooth with rusticated bowl

06-20-2009, 07:58 AM

Nice grain.

JaKaacH · 06-20-2009, 09:32 AM

Great looking pipe.
The UPS truck came rolling down the street yesterday....But he didn't stop..

Hope he stops Monday...

CHRONO14 · 06-22-2009, 03:06 PM

Curses left the house for half an hour and missed the UPS guy. Going to have to wait till tomorrow. On a side note 94 degree weather sucks.

JaKaacH · 06-22-2009, 04:30 PM

My Boswell CA pipe was delivered today....

I like how 2/3 of the rim is natural plateau burl texture and the rest is smooth.
That Christmas Cookie blend smells great...

06-22-2009, 05:00 PM

So far the pipes look great! I can't wait to get the call.

Just a quick note to say that i received my pipe today. I plan to post pics tomorrow or the next day.

My pipe was "all smooth". I guess the only change I would make is to have a rusticated bowl like JaKaacH. Overall I love the pipe, and that would be the only small change I would make. The size is larger then I thought from the pictures (which makes me happy since my old pioneer pipe is too small).

Just some info for other members:
Pipe Cost: $99
Shipping: $11

Also picked-up 4 ounces of Northwoods, on top of my free sample of Christmas Cookie, for $14.

Nabinger16 · 06-24-2009, 03:09 PM

My twins arrived today!!!! I absolutely love both of them. I snapped a few pics that I'll post later tonight. I'm smoking some Sweet Tea in the rusticated one right now. Boswell pipes definitely smoke like a champ!!!
