So I got on ebay with the intension of buying a large pipe, one that I could try and get a 2 to 2 1/2 hour smoke out of... I happened upon THIS pipe and it was fairly cheap so I bid up to $10 and won. Now that I have gotten out of the heat of the moment (I found it with 4 minutes left in the auction) I am realizing that there is nothing for scale! Has anyone else seen one of these "giants"? I am wondering if I need to keep my search going!

Cheff-ah-peep.Sold at Tinder Box pre 1981 and were from the St Claude region of France the plant closed in 1981 . My GBD Gigante from france will smoke for two hours , you can insert your entire thumb in the bowl . I like the look of that pipe Bubba . The square stem and saddle bit is awesome .

FLN pipes are pretty big. Can get my thumb in my pipe. Still breaking it in but half a pipe last about an hour so the full bowl should hit the 2 hour mark! Pretty funky looking pipes and had made too. Not bad for $50!

I might get myself one of those, they look pretty nice and a custom made one would be even better!

Nice looking pipes, guys. :clap: Those square shanks look so good!

I've got a couple of pipes with oversized bowls, but I don't smoke them much because

they tend to wear me out. Of course nobody forces me to fill them up to the rim, but

my appetite is often larger than my stamina.
