Just picked this up at my local B&M. I can not put my bent pipes in it but i have enough straight pipes to fill it as well.

Nice! I have one identical to that one! I cut one of the sections out to fit a bent pipe. I also want to make or buy a rotating base for it. Otherwise 1/3 of the pipes are hiding and harder to access.
This one has a lazy susan style so it rotates already and the jar holds 4oz of tobacco not pressing it down. I like it so far.
I have seen inexpensive little bamboo lazy Susans for dinner tables. They’re like 6” in diameter and cost like $10. I always thought they’d be great for this very purpose. Let me see if I can find one, quickly…
I inherited a similar stand from my father that originally belonged to his father. I can thread most pipes into the hole and make the bowl rest in the base, even somewhat bent pipes. I have an cabinet, an open rack, and a pipe rack tobacco stand, all fully occupied and in continual use.
Your stand looks well made and finished. Maybe you can pass it down. I'm glad to have mine since no pipes got passed along.
My dad mostly owned and smoked only one pipe at a time, with maybe a near burn-out and a cob as a back-up. So he didn't have enough pipes, and I have too many, but it is fully loaded and always in use.

I inherited one from my dad, must be the deluxe model with tube for cleaners, and it spins. Decatur Industries, I believe, sold via many B&M’s.
Mine came from Iwan Ries.

You can turn the bent stems upside down & they’ll fit. Looks weird but it works
When I used racks, they had to be elaborate, wired weird I guess.
Oh my I want that I love globes.
Don't be shy about messaging the seller with offers. Just because the listing doesn't offer a best offer option doesn't mean they're not open to them.
There's also another version where the globe is a tobacco jar.
