Ceramic pipe PDA help.

[kennerth]

I have decided that I am wanting to add a ceramic pipe to my rotation. I have seen used ones but want to break one in from the box. I have done several searches but cannot find a source. They either lead me to clay pipes or bongs. Some on the ceramic pipes I have seen in the past have been made in Holland.
Does anyone have any experience with them and/or know of a source for new ceramic pipes?

I like my Lepeltier Pipe.
They really don't need breaking in. Are you looking for something like that?

Personally i would just get a clay pipe. they are similar ans smoke awesome

Thanks for the lead Phillip! Jchap, Clay will be the next one. Then a meer-lined. Then, added to my meers, cob and pipes of various woods, I will have pretty much one of every kind of pipe-tobacco pipe that looks like a pipe tobacco pipe.. Unless this group tells me I am missing more!

Hey Kennerth...

Watch your fingers if you buy one.

The bowls really get very hot.

It is easy to burn yourself with ceramic.

i was checking out the ceramics today but dont remember the site. i just typed "cheap pipes" in google an it came up they were only 15 to 30 bucks

Lawrence, I will definitely keep my fingers on the outside! :clap: Seriously, thanks for the tip.

I like the idea of being able to rinse them out, let them dry overnight, and then use the next day.
