[QUOTE="riff raff, post: 244293, member: 1771"] You get what you pay for and fills are part of cheaper pipes. I don't have too many pipes with fills, but these are two examples. With the right stain, they can blend in. This one is on my Digby, a GBD 2nd because of fills. Not too offensive and I love the shape so much and it smokes great. You can just see the fill on the heel of the bowl.

I repaired it and restained the pipe. I used the Super-Glue/briar dust method to fill the hold once the putt was removed. A 2 stage contrast stain hid if fairly well.
