@cpmcdill The wood is from a Plum Burl knot from a tree in my yard, for some reason the tree had a huge burl knot growth on it so when the tree got sick I cut it and saved the burl knot & sent it to Gary & had him make this Author for me from it. Here is a picture of the burl knot the pipe was made from. G'Day
Looking through this thread almost makes me want to break out my favorite bowls and I still have a great house mix in storage. Enjoy All, I can imagine them from here
@basement_shaman Nice collection! I only have one so far. It's a rusticated Dracula like the one in your pic center-left. It's a great smoker and I wouldn't hesitate getting another 999 once I decide to buy more pipes.
@crullers 80s is a bit smaller bowl in the bull dog shape. I also like the B5 and the B10. Most of my collection are petersons . have some meers ,clays and cobs I throw into rotation. My problem is over. But I still like looking. hadn't got a new pipe in such a long time. I don't need any . Pipe acquisition disorder gets a reprieve and not by choice. Still a tough erge but with no income ,the reality sets in.
