[QUOTE="thomas james, post: 2204, member: 4"] Pipebrew, Consider a medium size pipe, say a group 3. Get it with a military bit so the stem can be removed when the pipe is "hot." Partially fill it with a "bulk" tobacco that you like and don't worry about the waste. The most important thing is that you enjoy those short smokes. A group 3 will also serve you well in your regular pipe rotation so as to defray some of the cost of the tobacco that is not smoked. I am not a DGT fan either and don't think you should "force" yourself into liking it simply because others do. You can also carry a bent over pipe cleaner, pinched at the bend, in order to clean the two halves. Don't be afraid to ream it ocassionaly if the cake builds up unevenly. It's a work pipe and should serve YOU. Consider a straight pipe as it will be easier to keep clean and should "pack" a little better in your pocket. You should be able to get a nice Pete, Sav or Stanwell to serve your needs quite well at a nominal price. Finally, consider a blast or rusticated as they will smoke cooler for those quick smokes. tj [/QUOTE]
