That Golden Sliced and the Dunhill are two that I've liked. Good looking pipes, too.

The 2nd party to this masterclass in mailbox destruction was none other than @Stubble. That Tejano Witchdoctor put some sort of charm on this small box to just keep pouring out samples of every tobacco cut? Another heartfelt thank you, this is greatly appreciated!
The candies were a nice touch, they bought me another 5 minutes before the kids started screaming “Spicy toothpaste!” And then “Mom, look what daddy bought!” Traitors.
A good trip to the p.o.
First, Mr Stubble felt i needed to get smacked around. Above and beyond sir. @Stubble Thank you Steve! The perfect winter smoke.

I got this beautiful tomato from a Russian pipe maker on the Pipe Smoker's Den forum today.
What are the dimensions on that pipe @Yakster ? The bowl looks like at least 1"....
It does have quite a large bowl, I won't make this one a flake pipe--which burns quite slowly--and will reserve it for ribbon cut tobacco and the like.
Length - 135 mm (the stem of this pipe is 4 mm longer);
Weight 46.2 g;
The largest diameter of the bowl - 48.3 mm;
Tobacco chamber diameter - 24 mm; (0.94")
The depth of the tobacco chamber is 34 mm;
Bite - 3.9 x 16.8 mm;
Stem - ebonite SEM. Smooth cupronickel ring.

Smoking that pipe this morning I find that the bowl is wider at the top so I've been filling it only about 75% full which is still a good amount of tobacco and prevents charring the rim.
I got some more Coniston Cut Plug to blend with my Bosun Plug along with a couple of other blends from Watch City as well as a concave cutting board for my ulu knife to help me cut plug tobacco.

This showed up in the mail today from @Yakster. The tins of tobacco were expected. The cigars and pipe rest definitely weren't. Some sort of treachery, I'm sure. Thank you very much, Chris. I won't forget this. (Muahaahaa).

That pipe rest has a cut-out for a cigar and features a custom Texas star snap fastener. It's quite an upgrade from my earlier pipe rests which were old belts and electrical tape.

A Neil Monier rusticated Bing with a natural finish on the rim and a vulcanite stem. This thing is light and beautiful and I'm looking forward to taking it for a spin later.
