Each day this week I have been smoking My Bruce Weaver pipes in the order of acquisition, anticipating Sunday when I can finally burn my first bowl in my sandblasted egg that I commissioned and received back in May. Soooooo close! 8O

Congrats on your ability to hold off smoking that beauty, and may it be worth every minute of the wait. ::

Your restraint is cringeworthy noteworthy. :mrgreen:

It's been out many times to look at, but so far I have abstained. Never waited to smoke a pipe this long, usually fire them up the day I buy them!

Such restraint surly does not exist, it's trick photography, there's a mirror and a spring underneath .....

:rofl: As soon as I scrolled down and noticed the title, I thought, "That must be Duane and his Bruce Weaver." I can't wait to hear your first post after finally lighting that one up. I hope it smokes wonderfully!

I didn't think I was capable of it either!

Getting predictable, aren't I? :mrgreen:

Duane, I won't consider it Christmas until I see a photo of your mug with that pipe loaded, lit, and smoking.

You have far more restraint than I will ever have.

Good on you and no doubt the wait will be worth it. ::

I'm not saying that you have great restraint but I'm saying that I couldn't hold out. I strive to be a patient and content. ....... look squirrel.
