ok, I have emailed and received an initial repsonse from the Boswells.
J.M seems willing to take on our project. I can attest to how well his pipes smoke, and I guarantee he will have the best price point of anyone we've been discussing.
So, take a look here
http://www.boswellpipes.com/classicpipegallery.html and post up what catches your eye.
These will be the easiest to have made, and be the most inexpensive. Most of these ran in the 50-90 dollar range when first posted.
I have posted the ones I like, but post yours, or if you see something from a different gallery post that as well. I can call him monday or tuesday if we have a good idea of what we want. I know many wanted a poker, but a nice quarter bent apple or something along those lines may be the best for getting this done and at an agreeable price
