Fills That Reveal Themselves Later
My Savinelli (Erica Fiamma) did the same thing. Beautiful straight grain that I couldn't see any flaws on when I purchased it. Then after a half dozen-ish smokes it shows up plain as day. From some of the other comments, it sounds like Savinelli is good at hiding fills (at least initially).- bytor

Letting a bowl sit
Ditto with the last three posts...I almost never finish a pipe in one sitting. Occasionally the first few puffs are a little bitter, but it seems to depend on the 'baccy. If it doesn't mellow out after a few puffs then I will dump it.- bytor

My latest pipe pickup!
Dudley, A quick google says...yes, Radice currently makes twin bore pipes! Seems they may have been a fad for a while, disappeared perhaps, and came back to some degree. -

My latest pipe pickup!
There are a couple schools of thoughts on bent Bulldogs. 1. Some insist that a Bulldog is straight stemmed and anything with a bent stem is a Rhodesian. 2. Others say that a Bulldog has a diamond shank while the Rhodesian has a round shank. Personally...I am of the second group. To me, you've... -

Characters include druids, elves, trolls, dwarves, etc. although the story line is presented in the distant future long after a holocaust has destroyed todays civilizations.

The Start of My Pipe Collection?
I almost offered the suggestion of using fine grit sandpaper (emery cloth), but thought you might feel a bit uneasy about it (first pipe and all...) -
The Start of My Pipe Collection?

Musicians on the Forums
After taking the pics of my set...I'm almost ashamed to post them :) I guess I don't notice how much dust is on them while I'm playing! And a pic of my small venue setup - hands only, no sticks. I've since added a couple more pieces, but don't have any pics (nor is it currently setup).- bytor
