I smoked it last night...the bit is a wide fishtail and it is a very comfortable, great smokerjmg wrote: 16 Sep 2022, 21:40I remember that Wally Frank. That's been quite a few years back.Bloodhound wrote: 16 Sep 2022, 11:57 While you are waiting for your new to you pipe, here are a couple of pics of my two ring grained blasted pipes.
The top one is my Turner pipe. I think that was made before Simeon got his blast cabinet so I believe he blasted it at another maker's shop. You can see on this pipe where my thumb rests when I smoke it...starting to get smoothed out some.
The bottom pipe is a Wally Frank, that sweet&sour sent me when he was my Secret Santa a few years ago. If I remember correctly he had sent it off to JMG to blast it and bring out the ring grain.
Nice blast...

Great news! Congratsjmg wrote: 16 Sep 2022, 21:41 I received the pipe from the Ukraine yesterday. All in all, it's in pretty decent shape, but will take a fair amount of cleaning. I am very pleased with the blast...even better in person.

Looks like it comes with a partially smoked bowl of tobacco for you to finish up on arrival.

Lots of Gold bond! Though this year I was just using baby powder, as we had multiple bottles throughout the house. Works well.
