Default New Pipe in the Stable

When RX2010 (Tim) posted up his new Boswell I went over to the site to check out the new pipes that were posted. I got sucked into buying one. Called them up and talked to JM himself. He's a really nice guy and we talked a bit about his inspiration for the pipe and some of the techniques that he used when making it.

I really like the small stuff on the pipe. The plateux at the end of the shank, the etching on the bowl, and the unique shape of the bit. He's even throwing in a sample of his tobacco, a pipe tool, and some cleaners.

Now that's the type of customer service that I like.

Nice pipe. I looked at that one yesterday but ended up going with the one I posted in Tim's thread. The Boswell's have made a good deal of money off us in just the last two days haha.

Maybe they should make a CA edition pipe

Love the pipe, Scott. Totally Boz.

Just got an email from JM's son Dan. I'll be getting my pipe on Monday. Just in time for my birthday.

I love it when a plan comes together.

The 10th. God, I'll be 37!!

My dad actually asked me the other day how it felt to be turning 40. I had to tell him that it was my brother Erik who turned 40 this year, not me.

Ohhhhhhhh man! A bunch of fish. Mines on the 11th

Scott, nice looking pipe you have there. Got one myself from Boswells last year. They are very nice folks.

A CA Edition pipe. That would be most interesting. Might I suggest a poker style?
