I'm quite pleased with this one. It's a big bit of meer, the chamber is 21mm by 50 mm to give an idea of its size. The stummel is 1o cm by 5cm. It's unsmoked with a vulcanite stem which has some oxidization that'll need removed. Then I'll have to decide which tobacco to smoke in it.

one thing I will say about meer. Is larger chambers work better with meer then briar in my opinion. It doesn't get as soggy the flavor just deepens. I guess I am saying if you want a bigger chamber for a longer smoke go for the meer option. My second one has a pretty big chamber and although rarely used, man when it does it's great for a long smoke that stays perfect through and through. Just a side note.
Note too a big briar chamber is still going to smoke good in my experience but the improvement with a larger meer is noticeable.
