Kurt I think you should put that red into use on your pipes! Simply stunning. I might have to break my rule about how much I spend on pipes! Well actually it's my wife's rule...

Trevor it's funny you mentioned a coral snake as I was a Gila Monster. Nice looking finish!

Does your tongue feel ok? I agree with Kurt, I think you were smoking way too hot.

Great deal! 40 bucks for a WALL of stuff. I better start looking for auctions to go to.

Congrats! I'm sure the 2 year old will be fine.

Sound like a workable solution? For little more than the cost of what a pipe shop might charge you, you can get a smal...

And given the reputation of your pipes it's safe to assume they are well drilled. I'll send you out a...

Well I am ready to take the plunge and try my hand at crafting a pipe. I have been reading here for quite sometime and had no real reason to make a post until I was ready.
