Gord - reading about your dilemma re: big pipes VS smaller pipes, I have a thought which MAY or MAY NOT be an answer. Sure, you can load a big pipe just partially. But you can also load a big pipe full, smoke as much as you care to, then set it aside. This from someone who really likes DGT. And DGT is something I purposely plan for, sometimes loading 2 or even 3 pipes at the same time just so I can set some aside after partially smoking. For me, DGT ... the next day ... maybe 3 days later ... maybe a week later ... is always a treat.
