Here's a new one I made that I call a goblet stack. I really like this one and hope it smokes well. Can you guess what the inspiration was? Vital statistics: 2 15/16 in. High 2 3/4 deep chamber 13/16 dia. Chamber 1 1/12 dia. 6 3/4 long

Nope, nope, nope. Thanks Roy. Far more prosaic inspiration than you folk credit.

umm..it shaped like a goblet? Interested to see if the shape creates some smoking issues, does it curve in the chamber?

Was the inspiration anything to do with all that wine you drank?

slowroll when I first started seeing your work I had wondered if the tall thin chamber might be less than efficient, I am now seeing the narrow chamber as a way to get better flavor out of many smokes. I totally compliment you on your work. David

I bet they're great for folding flakes.

More important question is, how does it smoke?

Thanks men. Comments from a discriminating bunch as yourselves is appreciated. Yep, the tall narrow bowls are great for flakes, but anything smokes well in them, they do concentrate the flavor I find. And, if I want a shorter smoke, I load less tobac. I find a tall bowl loaded less than full smokes very well, whereas I find a shorter bowl bowl underfilled smokes hot. So far, 4 smokes in, it smokes well. The wine I drank may have had indirect influence, given I drink a bit of it. But here's the particular inspiration...

This pipe, but with a lighter, blonde finish. PM me a price! I'm poor, but I'll save up. Haha Assuming you have the time.

Well, Ginger, or Cindy Crawford, Stephanie Seymour, could certainly give me inspiration alright  there may be another thought here.... A pipe wth a waist and 2 b........?
