Heavier Pipes

[cosmicfolklore]

A lot of these pipes mentioned have huge bowls. Look carefully at chamber sizes also, to make sure you don’t end up with one that can pack half a tin at a time.

To get a huge pipe with small bowl, you may want to talk to an artisan pipemaker.

Look up "Fat Daddy Pipes" or "Fat Bastard Pipes" they both make big chunky pipes, without overly large chambers.

Do you have a drill? Just buy a piece of briar and drill 2 1/4” holes into it at a 90 degree angle, insert straw from McDonald’s, proceed to go to town.

Are you familiar with Rossi Lucca pipes? If so, are they any good?

I collect Savinellis. Rossi is one of their sub brands. Very good quality for the price. Looking at the 8320?

That Moretti I posted can kill a 50g tin with two fills.

GQ Tobaccos have for sale a Northern Briars Sea Urchin magnum that's about 6½ ounces. It's £399.


Peterson Pub Pipes are about 4 oz

That has to get a bit spicy and juicy towards the bottom. How long does a pipe full last?

Surely the tobacco has aged by the time you get towards the bottom...?

I hear you on big pipes. When I first started I wanted huge pipes. Some have mentioned all the best makers, Ser Jacopo Maximas, Ardor Giants, Boswell jumbo through XXX Jumbo, and if you want huge then Boswell Grizzley and Magnum! The biggest i have are my Boswell Jumbo XXX with bowls over an inch wide and almost 3 inches deep. I smoke one of the Jumbo XXX 2 to 3 times a week and a Jumbo Supreme every day. Lately, I have been interested in smaller pipes though, probably because I got my hands on Mcclelland and I am not rich enough to pack a Jumbo XXX!
Go on Smokingpipes.com and use pipe locater and specify pipes over 3ozs or Boswell.com Mondays at 8pm! Good luck!

I have seen some giant pipes made by Moretti on ebay.
I am wondering if you know what type of blends that you are going to smoke in your giant?

A couple of days, usually a weekend or work desk pipe. I let my tobacco go bone dry before packing so no moisture at the end of a smoke.

That's how big this Kenan is.

Also another option is a wide short bowl like a pot or pot-still. Diplomats or princes (which are usually more petite but can be stouter from some makers.).

Or one of the squat shapes. Tomato, bulldog, etc.

Not heavy but stout and short. Might fit the Bill for shorter smokes and not feel like a toy. Moonshine Wire Rusticated Pot Still | Buy Moonshine Tobacco Pipes at Smokingpipes - https://www.smokingpipes.com/pipes/new/moonshine/moreinfo.cfm?product_id=391673

Right!

 

[OzPiper]

I am always seeing pipes that way between 1oz -2oz. I was wondering where I might acquire pipes of excellent quality that are 4oz+ in weight. I am simply looking for heftier pipes. Thank you.

Embers would be your go-to guy for info on plus-sized pipes

Use the pipe finder tool on Smokingpipes.com. You can sort their entire selection by brand, shape, length, chamber size, finish, length, and of course.....weight.

That's how big this Kenan is.

How in the world do you hold such a pipe in your mouth without teeth or dentures?

Sepiolite isn't really heavy.
