I am currently on pipe lock-down, but figured I should post this find. Someone has to snag this puppy!

Oh, cool... hadn't seen a checker for sale in awhile. I fixed up and sold one of those back in 2010 or 2011. It was an apple or small billiard shape, though. I let it go for $12 because it went to a guy who had just started pipe smoking. Good times, good times.

I enjoy my Yello Bole Checker. It has a stinger with a scoop.

Yeah, I noticed that when I was cleaning this one out. Never saw that before.

Have you given it a test run yet? Curious what you think.

Nope, not yet...been letting it air a couple of days. The tryout may happen when I get home tonight. :)
