First Photos: PAD Therapy

[dryseason91]

(These are the first photos I've posted and I hope they turn out OK. Apologies for the low quality, I had to use my phone.)
Fresh off the UPS truck, a Savinelli Grezza Canadian from bollitopipe.it. At 30 euro this is the cheapest series Savinelli produce - as a matter of fact it came without a box or sleeve and isn't even marked Savinelli. There were a few different things I'd been wanting - a Savinelli, a Canadian, a natural briar finish, and an uncoated chamber - and this lad satisfied all criteria in one incredibly priced package. I haven't smoked it yet but it appears to be well-plumbed and has a lovely free, open draw. (You might be able to make out some machine-marks in the chamber, but they're tiny and I don't mind them.)

Well that was a fail.

I picked up one of these from my local B&M. I got their classic straight billiard model. I packed it up with some Dunhill Navy Flake and it smoked like a champ from the start. I wish I would have found one of these when I first started smoking. These make excellent starter pipes.

Nice pipe - congrats. I like natural finishes, it should color very nicely.

Thanks Six and Mike. Am I right in saying those pictures aren't coming up? I can't see them.

Ya they are not coming up. I copy/paste the link to see the photos.

I think I got one of them to work.

Cool Lincoln, thanks for that, I have no idea what I'm doing here.

That is a cool pipe at a great price! Is the stem vulcanite or lucite?
Here's the other photo.

[dryseason91]

OK, I understand now, thanks everyone!
Jarit, I believe it's lucite, although I'm bad at telling the difference.

Nicely done dryseason - that will patina nicely I am sure

I forgot to mention that bollitopipes threw in a free tamper and some pipe cleaners, which was a nice touch.
