On the porch after an exhausting day that was capped by an incredible supper, lovingly prepared by Dear Sweetie. BBQ chicken, baked kielbasa, baked beans, pasta salad, homemade biscuits, washed down with mugs o' tea. Great God I'm a lucky man! I've loaded my first Calebrisi Canadian with some mystery aro that's gotten so crispy that the dressing seems to have evaporated. But there's a bit o' lat in there, and maybe just a touch o' port wine? Is this EGR? I suspect it may be. Happy evening pipes, all!

SPRT in the bored-out Riviera pot
This was an early experiment in boring out briar, and it is not so "clean" as the next one I did. This one arrived from the 'Bay with a 3/4 in bowl that had been topped. I figured I was never going to like this pipe as it was. It is an excellent smoker. The quarter is there for reference on the size.

Even after boring it out there's a ton of wall left. You could always go biggerFr_Tom wrote: ↑Tue Jul 31, 2018 7:58 pm SPRT in the bored-out Riviera pot
