So I really don't have any panel pipes in my collection at all. However...I was at my tobacconist the other day and he was going through a pile of estates when he came across this very strange pipe bowl (btw, if anyone knows what this went to originally, please enlighten me), he was about to toss it since it really served no purpose with the the rest of the pipe, when I asked if I could have it. I had a plan...
Here's the original pipe bowl:
I sanded it down and polished it, than did a simple oil finish, I then put a kirsten pipe adapter on it, it took a long screw, but I got it to fit.
New life to a pipe bowl that almost got thrown away. So, there...my one and only panel pipe with a story behind it.
