I have my brylon pot that I'll need to bring to the shop with me and use whenever possible. Been out in the field doing an install with very little time to enjoy a smoke

I have found that I have 5 Brylon pipes in my stash of pipes I don't smoke, 4 were given by family member years ago and one I don't have a clue were it came from, cleaned a ready now though.

I thought a group shot of my ABC pipes might generate some excitement. They are all clean and ready for action on the 1st.

So what is the collective noun for a group of brylons? Is it a cast? Maybe it is a clutch? Perhaps it is just a herd like other groups of pipes we thin, etc.

I'm an alliteration guy, so a "B" word is called for to me. A brace? A bunch? I dunno. I'm not married to the idea...y'all toss it around!

A board of brylons might be an option. That gives a nod of the head to the displays at drugstores.

Bevy might be an option.
