I don't recall ever seeing such a large piece of briar with no imperfections - amazing! Thank you for sharing the photos, it is a lovey pipe. If you don't mind, how big is the chamber? Enjoy many great smokes with that statement piece!
Thank you. I typically only give the dimensions a cursory glance before buying so I don’t remember and Cup O Joes has already removed it from the website
This is what I remember :
1. The chamber depth was well over 2 inches .. In fact it s 2.8 if I remember correctly. I was surprised at the depth
2. I don’t remember the chamber diameter but it is 1.5 inches by my eye
I will try to measure it later today and give more accurate answers
No need to measure - your details above were great. It's a massive hole to go with that massive lump of beautiful briar. I have a couple of pipes whose bowls would fit in that chamber! When Jiminks says a tobacco could be an all-day blend, that would equate to one bowl in that pipe!
You actually made me measure it.
When I measure it at the forward cant, it is indeed 2.8 inches, but if I measure it vertically it is 2 inches. So the chamber is canted.
I smoke this one 3-4 times a weekWow! that is one big bad beauty!! Very nice pipe. I’d love to take that thing out on the track and see how she drives.
