Lovely pipes, gloucesterman, sjmiller, and wyfbane!
This thread is turning into a favorite of mine. Keep em coming!

No kidding Anthony, beautiful pieces one and all! One day I will pull the trigger on a Nording, and I'm blaming you. :mrgreen:

I'll gladly take that blame! Haha!

 

[Chasing Embers]

Guess that would be payback for the whole Black Frigate thing huh?

Pretty cool 7 Day sets!
I have one, shape/brand specific group, the GBD 9438

I knew you'd come through Al, great set! Didn't know if a similar thread had done and it had been on my mind for quite awhile and am happy I finally got around to posting the question, some outstanding sets folks, keep it going!

Wow, really nice pipes here. I think I have to start collecting my seven day set.

 

[fishnbanjo]

Finally had a good day so I went digging to grab a photo of the first of my seven day sets, these are by JT Cooke.

My whole pipe collection is a 7 day set. I don't smoke that much so they have plenty of resting time. I actually like having a limited number of pipes. I feel like they are more familiar companions that way.
ssjones- love those GBDs.

Banjo, those JT Cook's are great looking. That second one from the top looks like Strawberry wood, and I love the blast. And the honey pot shape on the fourth from the top is very cool. What is that shapes official name?

 

[fishnbanjo]

texmexpipe, thanks, pretty sure that was listed as a Cauldron when I purchased it, have not seen another as yet. Regards.

I finished my Bill Taylor Ashton set today (see related thread).

I am frankly in awe of these sets. They're a testament to patience and taste.

@fishnbanjo:
Amazing Cookes - especially the blasts.

I also have five (working on seven) Huck Finn pokers that are dedicated to straight Virginias / Va/Pers / Va/burs. I've really got to get around to taking a photo of them.

 

[fishnbanjo]

Jeffery, nice line up, I haven't owned a Huck Finn yet how does it compare in size to a Diplomat or Twain?

Well after 9 weeks of fighting an infection that none of the Dr's I had to see could pin down what it was it has finally passed. I don't remember how many blood tests, ER visits, Dr visits and EEE an TEE Cardiac tests to see I any of the heart valves were infected which came out negative and the Cardiologist said everything about my heart was perfect. I have been cleared to restart my maintenance schedule and my oncologist has me set to start again, they were on hold to prevent the drug from interfering with trying to stem the infection.
As promised here is another of my Seven Day Sets this time they are from the Becker family made by Fritz, Paulo and Federico Becker.

Fishbanjo, thank you, sir. I'm glad to hear that your back on the mend (so to speak).
The Huck Finn pokers are a bit larger (and perhaps narrower) than the Mark Twain cobs; however, the pokers are a suprisingly light and a fun smoke (once broken in). Obviously, I enjoy these for Virginia blends, but I also have one dedicated to light English. Alas -- to each there own!

 

[wyfbane]

I am glad you are feeling better! There are so many weird bugs floating around these days. Glad to see you back online.
I love your sets. I have seen you post acquisitions for a while so I *know* you have sets of uber pipes just itching to be posted on here. I can't wait!
