[QUOTE="Jers, post: 231683, member: 2574"] Thanks for the kind comments guys. The dirty deed is done.......the Mario Grandi is taking its first sail and it's all good so far. I had to use a spade and get help from two neighbours to fill it but it's smoking well. The only thing I'm finding strange is the size of the bit - this is definitely never going to be a pipe smoked comfortably whilst hands free. BTW I should have mentioned that the Parker smokes very well for me - the only thing I have noticed is that if smoked too hard the bowl can get warm/hot quickly. Easily solved by setting the pipe down for a few minutes, running a pipe cleaner through the mouthpiece and restarting. The Parker came with two metal inserts for the stem. Neither fits at present as it appears that a metal collar/end of tube is broken off and stuck near in the shank near the bowl. Once I have finished smoking the Mario Grandi I will try to get a photo and post it on the site for some advice. I don't use filters in any of my pipes but it might be nice to have the Parker in full working order Thanks again guys for your help in acquiring both of these pipes. Fraternally Jers. [/QUOTE]
