[QUOTE="Wet Dottle, post: 232945, member: 192"] Nice article, even if a bit too long. Much of what is said in the article, I learned from Ashton's pipes in the early 2000's: many could be found with all sorts of crooked drilling and terrible stem fitting, but I could never find one that didn't smoke exceptionally well. In fact, many of those Ashtons smoked better than perfectly drilled and fitted pipes from other makers. What it is not said in the article is that paying premium prices for poorly drilled pipes (no matter how well they smoke) is a different story; and makers asking for premium pipes must produce premium quality. Good read, thanks for the link. [/QUOTE]
