Finally have a 7 day setI've finally gathered up a 7 day set of Dr. Grabows. I'm actually one over, though it's not pictured. Here are my Grabow's, plus an L.L. Bean pipe. I figured the Dr's cousin is allowed in the group. As you can see the wire finish is easily my favorite finish. They all smoke like a dream so far. I have about a $36 balance left in my paypal account so I figure I can squeeze in a few more before the fund runs dry till 2010!
The poker seems to have been cut down at some point in it's life, but it makes for a great short smoke. 'Bout the perfect size for one flake too if a longer smoke is desired.

Ted, next time you stop by the factory you can tell your cohorts that I sold a Dunhill to fund that collection. See if that don't get a grin. I'm happier with them too!

Yes indeed. I REALLY like that bent billiard at the bottom. I have NEVER seen one in that finish. Man I like that!

I need one more Westbrook to complete my seven day set. I have still yet to find a shape on Ebay that I dont have. The same shapes keep coming up. That set of yours is awesome, congrats and enjoy them in good health

Wesley - that billiard at top left - is the stem on that one bent down a little bit?

Not anymore. I don't think it was supposed to look like that originally so last night I heated the stem and bent it back to straight.

Okay, I was wondering. Great set, hope you enjoy it.

I was sitting here admiring your fine set of pipes (I like the one at the upper right the best, which I assume is the L.L. Bean) when my wife walked up behind me, rubbed my shoulders a minute, looked at the picture of the pipes and then said, "nice towel". --RJ--

Haha! I'm getting married in 44 days (let the countdown begin) and we've moved some of my fiancee's stuff into my house. If she knew I used her dish towel (i've learned are are different kinds of towels) to display my pipes I'd be a goner...

Oh yes. The towels!! That is a hand slapping offense for sure

Only for 43 more days. When I call it "our" house she hits me and tells me to quit sucking up.
