Updated Photos Of My Pipes

[spyder71]

My collection is growing fast and everyone, myself included, seems to enjoy pics. Keep in mind that when I really like something I have to find ways to fund the new hobby AND I am a very obsessive person. I have been buying lots on E-Bay for 6wks or so to build up my rotation quick. To finance my growing family I keep one or sometimes two out of a lot and then clean up the rest to sell or trade. I keep the best ones for offer to the forum members and dump the usual mess back on flea-bay. Just thought I would share...
The Grabows

My "other" daily smokers

The Cobs and the one I forgot was hanging out of my mouth

Project pipes I have on hand

FAMILY PHOTO TIME!

The bowls with no stems are getting them soaked to be shined up

Thanks for looking

Acquiring the herd is almost as much fun as smokin' it.

Have ya fallen prey to RAD (Rack Acquisition Disorder)yet?

Nice Spyder! In the Grabow group,what's the pipe on the top left? Looks like a Commodore or Sculptura.

The pipe on the left is my current DG favorite. It is a 50's Commodore and must be a great hunk o' wood cuz it's the coolest smoking by far!

I am liking the idea of making them myself. I want at least one that holds 24 pipes upright with a drawer or two on the bottom. This would maybe be adorned with a inlayed "spade" on the doors or something. This would give me an awesome place to keep the DG's and an excuse to find more!
Maybe I just got lucky, but every DG I own smokes well for me so I have fast become a fan of the brand.

I've made several racks myself spyder, all strictly utilitarian.

What your describing making sounds grand and, "an excuse to find more!", sensible!
