To piggyback and throw out another idea/suggestion.....is anyone using a Stanwell Featherweight as a flake pipe? I sure am wanting one of these in a classic shape of some kind. I've been holding off hoping to find an estate though. Any fans here???
It looks like I just found the one guy who didn't like the Pete he bought. I dug deeper and found that many people think the Tankard especially is nice flake pipe, for its shape and weight.

Actually I have a Savinelli Roma Poker, and it makes a great flake pipe...

What's wrong with a billiard?

If you are going to clench, make sure it has an acylic stem if you want it to last. Or, a vulcanite if you want it to be easier on your teeth.

Or, even better yet, learn to be a "hooker." Call me so that I can explain - I am handicapped for typing right now. (see this thread for details http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/showth...360#post827360)

Personally, Peterson's, even with p-lips, smoke like blast furnaces - never had one smoke cool. Suggestions from me would be estate pipes - Don Carlos, Ascorti, Ser Jacopo, Castellos, Savinelli, Radice, Mastro Beraldi, Caminetto,

Here is a DC pot, used http://store.pipesandcigars.com/doncaonenosm.html

Even nicer, this Radice. http://store.pipesandcigars.com/racl2dotpipo.html
