I wish I liked a really wide open draw. I’m probably gonna end up getting rid (trading in or selling) some 6mm savinellis I have because I don’t like how open they are without a filter.

I use the adapters but im not a fan of too much draw either.
I don’t like filters and I’m not crazy about a wide open draw
An hour? With no relights? Really? Interesting. For me, those little clays last me 20 min or so. With a relight or sometimes 2. Guess I need to practice more.@Scottmi How long did it last?
I'd like to see how long I can make a clay pipe of baccy last.
The re-enactor portraying William Cavendish said he got an hour's smoking time from a small clay pipe; I'd like to see if I can do it
I'd like to take part in clay pipe smoking competitions where the last contestant with baccy still burning wins...
Just got home from one of the few places in Boise you can smoke a pipe or cigar indoors, Sturman’s Cigar and wine bar. We hold a monthly get together Bible study called Holy Smokes.

@Carol He didn't say if he had to relight it...An hour? With no relights? Really? Interesting. For me, those little clays last me 20 min or so. With a relight or sometimes 2. Guess I need to practice more.
I thought his outfit and antique silver church warden pipe suited his character as the 17th century Duke of Newcastle!
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, rainbow trout and sugar snap peas dinner with strawberries for dessert. Need to lose a few pounds before I can go off the diet. Plateaus are not fun. Anyway, I'm smoking year 2001 VaPer Three Nuns in a 1938 straight black grain relief Dunhill OX Shell bulldog with a silver band repair with a black vulcanite saddle stem. And cleaning a few pipes.
I just tried the Amphora Burley for the first time today and quite enjoyed it.
Sounds like you're a good dad.
lasted a bit under 12 minutes. I don't know how to pack the little pipe right yet, methinks, let alone from one tobacco to another. So far is loose and goes FAST or too tight and doesn't go much at all. Never could I get an hour out of it. wow!@Scottmi How long did it last?

did it take 4 or 6 flakes to fill that monster?
That's a great name for your group!
do you know the vintage of this pipe? and carved in turkey then or elsewhere?
C&D Burley Flake #2 in a Stanwell Bamboo. Thanks to @Grangerous for recommending this blend! 
The adaptors work well, but it’s just another thing to clean and carry around. Okay back to what I’m smoking…
