Walt Cannoy is a pipe maker that lives in Lakeland. Maybe send him an email.

I know two guys that live in Lakeland. One is a well known Ebay pipe seller,the other a retired pro football player. Another gent I know lives in Crystal River which I think is not far from Lakeland. These three sometimes get together.

We're based in Spring Hill, which is about an hour and a half from you. There aren't any well-put together pipe clubs around here that I know of. However, there are a fair number of Central Florida pipe meetups every year. Distinguished Ruffians do one or two every year, Dagners usually do a couple. The hard part in these parts is finding a place that's pipe friendly.
