It's "custom" MM General... She knocked the sqareness off, dyed and buffed it... Also added a small cob for the shank...

Come to find out the shank was cracked at the bowl, so the process began...
I trimmed down the shank, drilled out the shank hole and started the fitting process... Come to find out, this pipe was more of a straight than a bent...
After that, I cleaned up the chamber, drilled it to .75"... Fitted the new orange stem (the white had to much of a bend) and voilą, it took it's maiden voyage with Captain Black Original!
It smoked like a Cob

I have had my fair share of fails... My garage floor shows it with cracked bowls, misfitted shanks and jacked up stems... Originally Posted by Nightblade

32t said he was getting ready to shovel... No real snow for me, just freezing rain and maybe a few flakes... Originally Posted by Nightblade

Haven't got off my duff yet ha......yeah I'm finding that Northwoods to be the one Latakia blend that I truly really enjoy now. More so than Frogmorten which I really liked for a while but got a little burned out on. Originally Posted by NoseWarmer
