A Neerup Structure and a Dunhill Root. Sneers or jeers?
Two Days, Two New Pipes

Well, it’s a three-day weekend over the 4th, so I expect to see three new pipes come Monday. ?
Hahaha. I actually have 3 on the way, but I doubt they’ll be here by then. One is coming from Italy, one from Singapore and one from smokingpipes.
PS, that was supposed to be “cheers” in the OP, not “jeers”. Stupid autocorrect.....
That's way too many pipes at once unfortunately..... You're doing it all wrong...
I think I'm just jealous...lol
Gotcha. I don’t normally buy this many at a time. As a matter of fact, until a month ago I hadn’t bought a pipe in nearly 4 years. All that pent up PAD is hitting all at once, lol.
Actually, no. The draw is open, and it smokes dry, but does not pass a cleaner. I’ve read that Dunhill made some, with a slightly different bottom profile, that would pass a cleaner, but that the majority of their Oom Pauls will not. It is a very difficult shape to drill in a manor that allows a PC to pass to the bowl, so I never expect one to do so.
Just asking as I've never had one of their straights pass a cleaner, but this one does.
And massive. Until it I had never heard of a Dunhill with a 63.5mm deep chamber.
I'm not particularly fond of the Hungarian shape, but yours looks very nice with the grain and staining on it. Cheers from me at least!
