It's definitely a unique look, and the pipe is otherwise sound. Glad you like it!

Tonight is a cigar night. Happy Friday evening to all.
Smoking a bowl of Dunhill Navy Rolls in an HS Studio reverse calabash ball as i contemplate what dinner's going to look like. Hmmm...
Haunted Bookshop in my small briar. Have a good weekend everyone. 
5 year old F&T Cut Virginia Plug in a smooth Sav Qandale.
Out for a walk and a bowl of Mac Baren vanilla flake with my boy. I used the fold and stuff method and it’s smoking pretty good. This bowl is a little wet compared to previous bowls. I had a slice dry and ready to stuff but my dog ate it… So I had no other choice than one straight from the tin.
This is my fourth bowl of this blend—and first aromatic at that. Upon opening it and getting a whiff my first thought was to toss it in the garbage. Fortunately the overwhelming aroma is not nearly as strong when smoked. I’ll finish the tin and see if it grows on me.

Chores done, ribs in the smoker. Now: MB Virginia Flake in a Mountbatten #9, an IPA, a book, and KEXP.
OJK in a 1969 Dunhill Shell 60 F/T 4S.
Chenet’s Cake in the Altinay. Same photo as before cause it’s too dark on the porch.
That repurposed pouch should make @The Clay King happy.
Dr. Grabow Royal Duke with a metal band on a Bulldog with a black saddle stem and slight bend. Smoking Three Friars a very pleasant surprise from @MarkinGeorgia who among his many talents, has excellent taste in tobacco. The Virginia and burley play nicely with each other as well as the Perique. A nice change up from some of my other tobaccos.
Well you think you're sitting down for a nice Friday smoke and Smokus Interruptus! Water system cistern alarm went off and had go investigate, check some meters, make some calls. Suspect recent work that opened up our supply line trench may have cracked the line (evidenced by wet area over the worksite).. At least any fixing will be on someone else's dime. 
But back to smoking! Now Tilbury in the Mastro de Paja 3AL Egg

Tire pressure adjustments to all of the vehicles including the spares while smoking some Tashkent.
Wilke’s Maple Plum Spice in a noname bent billiard.
MB HH Pure Virginia in an Altinay.
First time trying Tashkent and first time smoking this estate Kaywoodie President 93L.
Final pipe of the night, Lane 1-Q in the Barontini 1/2 spigot bent billiard with 9mm filter. I discovered something interesting about this Barontini. The shank is drilled like a system pipe, I accidentally tipped the condensation into the bowl when emptying the pipe necessitating a wipe out. And ... without a filter it passes a pipe cleaner to the bowl !!!! Very pleased yet again.
While watching the first game of the Fall Classic, I am smoking a bowl of HH BK in a 1956 250 root briar billiard...
