ok, when my voice returns to me, I will call the boswells and let them know we want pipe#4 (or something there about), 25 of them, half smooth, half rusticated.

I figure they'll be somewhere around 90-100 bucks per. each will come with 1oz of tobacco (your choice), cleaners and a czech tool.

in addition to his initials and date, it will say

Asylum 1 ed
purchaser's initials

I will hammer out the payment details when I call, but essentially we will have a sign up on here, and we will call him in the order on our list, and pay. it will sorta be first come first served, but lets be fair to those who have been most open in expressing interest from the beginning, and resist the urge to snipe your way onto the list.

then he will send them out as they're finished, he said probably 1-2 weeks for every few pipes as they're very busy.

comments? complaints?

No complaints here RX. I think you did an outstanding job on this, went far beyond the call of duty.

Thanks again.

Thanks for doing all of this work, I am getting very excited about this pipe!

05-05-2009, 04:02 PM

Excellent! I can't wait!

Thanks for doing this, I'm sure the pipe will be awesome.

05-05-2009, 05:33 PM

Do you mean the pipe itself will be half smooth/rusticated, or the batch order will be half smooth pipes, half rusticated ones?

05-05-2009, 05:37 PM

I think he means 13 will be smooth and 12 will be rusticated.

Many thanks for the good job, RX.

Will the sign up be in this thread or is there going to be another official sign up thread started? I've been excited as hell from the first mention of this coming to light so I don't want to miss it.

Boswell pipes are great smokers. I still have one from 1999 and traded one away. I'd like to get in on this if there's room. If it's full then that's OK, too.

There's one thing I notice about Boswell's pokers that bothers me a little.
I´m slightly germofobic and I can´t help to notice that some of those pipes are carved in a way in which the bit touches the surface... I mean, one of the advantages of pokers is precisely their sitting ability, which means you can put them down anywhere... I really wouldn´t be confortable in putting down a pipe whose bit touches the surface, at least at most places... I would like to know what you guys think about that (am I too paranoid about germs?), but I think that's not a good concept for sitter pipes.

So, Tim, if not too much bother, maybe you could mention that to JM? I really wouldn't be able to enjoy my pipe otherwise...

Sorry for being such a pain in the arse.
