In a bit of randomness I just happened to be on Instagram (I'm not a fan of Instagram) and Doug @doug535 just happened to post a pic of a pipe and noted he was just about done with making it. I contacted him and asked if it would be available. Long story short, it's complete and he's shipping it to me.

I'm super excited for this one to arrive!

Stats: Length=6.75, Height=2.65, Width=1.35, Weight=84g, Chamber =2.00x.860

I love the shape, the blasting is incredible, and the grain on top is gorgeous!

I love this pipe. What’s not to love? It’s got interesting lines, nice Birdseye, cool sandblast showing off crisp grain, and a relatively large chamber. Many of you know I have a penchant for Fan pipes. The little pinch between the chamber and stem is a great visual—it helps accentuate the inflated feel of the shape, making it seem like a new variation of a Fan—but my question is this: Once you break the top surface, wouldn’t that change the designation of this pipe to a Dublin, regardless of the extremely chubby proportions?
