imgur.com/a/FSLXtil Picked all of this up for $30 plus tax. I've never tried this type of pipe and figured I shouldn't pass up the opportunity. Now to figure out how to clean them up. Hopefully the picture works I've not posted any up to this point.

That is a bargain indeed. I really like my Falcon. Smokes well and is super rugged.

Is there a step other than copying the link that I missed? Thanks First select a host for your pictures. I use Imgur.....so can you. Follow these simple instructions..... I use an app on my iPad called Imgur....for file sharing. Save your photos on Imgur in your profile. Easy to upload photos from your photo library on your mobile device or computer. Keep your pictures hidden as opposed to public when uploading to Imgur. Tap the photo you saved within your profile on Imgur and tap copy link. Now tap the picture tab above ( it’s located bottom row, directly under the italic tab. Clear http:// out completely using your backspace key. Put the cursor in the Image URL box and paste the link. Click insert once you make sure the cursor is below the text within your thread. I find Imgur is best for file sharing. Photobucket now charges an exorbitant fee!!! You can also use your browser on your mobile device, PC or Mac. |

If those bowls two colored bowls are in good shape they are worth what you paid for the entire lot. Nice score!

That green bowl is pretty. But then again green is my favorite color.

Hopefully the picture works I've not posted any up to this point. One can expect to pay around $50 for an estate Falcon with one bowl, so that's an incredibly good score. Well done. Last year I won an ebay auction for 5 British metal pipes that included 3 Falcons. They looked like they had never been properly cleaned but were very easy to restore. Your pipes look to be in very good condition. A little alcohol & elbow grease & they will look a treat. A couple of tips; make your own filter rings from pipe cleaners. Give the metal 'bowl' a wipe with alcohol & run a pipe cleaner with a little alcohol down the stem when changing the 'filter' to stop any tar build up. They're very easy to maintain. All my metal pipes are good smokers. |

Just don't try to force the stem out...they are not removable! Thanks! I did try and then stopped and consulted the interwebs. All is good,I just need some super thin pipe cleaners apparently. I guess I'll just have to order some tobacco to get free shipping. 😏 |

You can also use a length of guitar string (big E or A) to clean that thin tube in a pinch.
