How about: a pipe 5 tins 5 items 1 6-pack or poney keg of microbrew I like that.  :lol: 

A member of Pipe Chat contacted me to ask if there was anything I could do for this Gasparini that he received as part of a lot he won on eBay. Sometimes you gotta ask what the hell some people do to their pipes. This one looks like it belonged to a carpenter who mistook the pipe for his hammer...

I had this well used Dr. Grabow Riviera in the parts basket and decided to work on it to see if I could put some new life into it. Did some rustication below the bowl band while maintaining the stampings. All natural briar, no stain, no dye, just White Diamond and Carnuba.

Holymolar recently sent me this very nice Hilson Viva Sandblast Dublin as a gift because he knows I love Dublin's. Holymolar knows me well though and knows that I can't leave anything alone and always have to make it mine. Thanks for this Holymolar: " /> But I had to turn it to this, hope...

I got this little Grayhound off eBay recently.  What I did not realize was how small this thing is as they pics on eBay offered nothing in the shot to judge scale, but at $9.00 I figured what the hell. Too small to smoke, without burning the end of your nose when trying to light it, so...

Hey Simon. Welcome to BoB. A great board with a great bunch of pipers. Enjoy. And thanks again for your support.

Great to have you here friend.

I jumped, and almost ran. Then saw it was you. Good Morning Sir.

Holy Hell Bobby, I scrolled down and almost jumped out of my chair. No worries though, I'm okay now.  :rabbit: 

Thanks Brewdude. I am thrilled that you are happy with that pipe now. For clarification, John is Coastie3202, and I love to work on pipes. If you have one that needs some attention please drop me a line. I do not do this for money, but more for experience and the love of my hobby. I would...

Pipe restoration....of course.

Beautiful work Sir. Salute!

WOW WOW WOW...I love the Lazy pipe. Reminds of a taco, and since I live in the Southwest it pulls at my heart strings. Fantastic work. Someday I hope to start carving my own and hope I can do that quality of work. CONGRATS.  :cheers:
