There are several ways, if not more, that comprise a seven day set. One way is all from the same maker/manufacturer, another is all the same shape either from the same maker/manufacturer or mixed. Yet another is all birth year pipes etc. I happen to have a few myself, each set by the same maker/manufacturer but I'm interested in seeing what you have and yes, corn cobs count! Regards.

Damn sj! I would love to see that. I had to stalk my Disney pipe like a panther on fleabay for over a year to finally get one!
banjo, none of my pipes are easy to find. I did have a picture of a 6 day set of Kirstens I put together since I live in and am from WA:

p.s. none of these are new. I am chomping at the bit to get up to Seattle and buy a new one to round out this set to 7.

It is hard to find things for easy photography because I packed them all in these for the move:

This is about 70-80% of my pipes. I haven't had time to label what is in which box yet. lol each one holds 5-9 pipes, depending on size.

I got really lucky in July of 2015 and found five Disneys on EBay that month. My sixth one, an unsmoked bulldog, I got on Esty in December of 2015. The seventh I found on EBay last month. The stem is badly chewed but it doesn't have a mouse stamp on it so I am going to have it replaced. Just have to figure out where I can get it done well and at a good price.

A couple more than seven cobs.

With my annual Weaver commission next year, I'll have seven!

Ok... I have a thing for Design Berlins... my first project was for 7, a week's set, of the "Junior" series. It was then that things started getting out of hand.
img_0432-600x450.jpg

The bottom row are the Juniors, plus there are 3 more off the rack that didn't match the depth of the color finish for some inexplicable reason. The top row are all DBs as well... 2 "Magnum"s, 2 blasts, and 2 silver trimmed "Bellini". They are ALL FANTASTIC smokers, with filters installed, and comprise the working backbone of my collection. The bits are all flat and wide and somehow fit my bites better than any others.

For those that commented on mine, thank you! I'm proud of my Nordings :mrgreen: I love em. And it's funny... Those Nordings are all quite large pipes, but the stand was hand made by my brother in law and overly large (they won't fit on my other stand) and it makes the pipes look tiny.
Duane, I might be as excited as you are to see your 7th Weaver. I am JEALOUS!!! Those are beautiful pipes!
I'm itching to see more 7 day sets. Some nice ones on here already. I want to see that 7 day of Walt Disney pipes, Sj.

Ever since I bought my second like Dunhill I've loved collecting like groups of pipes. Some of my seven day sets have grown into multi week and more sets. I am always on the lookout for a seventh gold banded or capped Ed Lehman Dunhill that Rich Esserman talked about on Pipes Magazine Radio a couple of weeks ago. 8O

I like to collect same pipe/different finishes and this is one of my favorite sets. They're Peterson XL 21s in Spigot or Army mounts and includes 2 Limited Edition, '97 & '99, A Craftsman Series (Feb. 2014) and a Black Rusticated Spigot that is believed to be a "one off" pipe. The remaining 4 are a Brown Spigot and Army Mounts in Kapp Royal, Ashford and Kapries finishes. The XL 21 are not produced in any significant numbers making finding them challenging.

Nice Pete's and an awesome display!
I had to bust out my Ser Jacopos for another thread and found some sets in my cases:
