Sounds like Doc is gearin' up to Sell Some Stuff (SSS). :mrgreen:

Are you putting a site together, selling through a co-op, or is it just a word-of-mouth thing?

Right now, word of mouth, pipe club, and I have some in a friend's antique shop in Annapolis (give the bored husband something to do).
I am also trying to get a few (number dwindles daily) ready for Chicago, plan to drive out from Baltimore, stop and see Premal Chheda's shop on the way. Pipes I take will be mainly for evaluation from the pros, but am not adverse to selling one or two if the opportunity presents.
Hopefully, my stamp will be done by then.

Who are you using for that? I'm dying to find a company that will deliver as promised. I tried going through the guy regularly suggested here and I could never get him to fax me (his suggestion, not mine) a proof of the lettering as he said mine was too thick.

I am waiting on Buck Eye Engraving. He was pretty timely with the proof, it's been about 3 weeks now, but I ran into a health issue which put me off my stride for a couple of weeks and am just now back to speed, so am not feeling the absence of the stamp. I am going to call today.

I've got one from Buckeye engraving which was sent nice and timely, even though I'm on the other side of the pond.

Received mine today. Will have to figure out how to get a good impression, but my early results look pretty good.
