[QUOTE="ZuluCollector, post: 685, member: 22"] I'm not sure about smoking quality re grain differences (straight vs cross) in smooths. Sometimes I have wondered whether or not cross grains conduct heat to the bowl perimeter faster than straight grains. I do notice a difference, however, in blasted straight grains that have a well-defined ring structure and that show up as ring-grained. They seem to smoke better for me, especially when the pipe is lighter in weight. This may be voodoo for all I know and completely in my head (there has to be something in there....). [/QUOTE]
