Rad just completed the 5th pipe for my 7 day set and it is a classic straight Apple in a group 5 size. It has a Cumberland stem with an inlay of Spalted Tamarind. It weighed in at 44 grams and I am psyched it is on the way. Two more to go and my set( all of them are black sandblasted pipes in traditional shapes) will be complete.

Nice pipe Harris. The set with all black sandblast is going to look incredible lined up. Well done!

That is a keeper. I can visualize you now - lounging in the "grotto" in your silk smoking jacket, living large and smoking this new Rad. Congrats, you deserve it.

I have two of Rad Davis' pipes and I love them both. Can't wait to get a third.

Thanks for the nice comments guys it is appreciated. I have decided the next one to be made is going to be a group 5 Zulu, followed by a straight Billiard also group 5. No Rad collection would be complete without one of his Zulu's and no 7 day set would be complete without a straight Billiard in my view.

Here is what the seven day set looks like so far. It is in order of my purchases.

I am also toying with the idea of replacing one of the Lovats with a Rhodesian. I am not sure I want my seven day set to have two of the same style. What do you guys think?

piper, I am leaning towards the Rhodesian, I also like that shape. I have a Rad Rhodesian in a different stain and love the way it smokes.
Bradley, not a big fan of pokers. I have a Cherrywood I like, so that might be a possibility.
