>>1005053Perfect or not, they are functional.
But most importantly, they are YOURS. You made them, and no one can take that away from you.
Enjoy them.

>>1005071 said, a smaller pipe is your best bet to give you that balance between flavor and short duration. I got
>>997608 just for that purpose, and it works quite well.
If you're REALLY intent on smoking a big pipe fast, a burley blend would probably be more your speed. It doesn't have the natural sugars in it that Virginia does, so it'll be less prone to biting the hell out of your tongue. It still won't taste nearly as good as any blend smoked properly, but at least it won't roast the inside of your mouth
>>1005021With shipping from England, I spent just over $37. Price for the pipe itself was just under $25. Not bad for a real Pete if I do say so myself.
And I fully intend on restoring that thing. I did
>>996758 earlier, and have cleaned up a few others besides.
My only concern is the mouthpiece-P lip bits are notorious for being hard to clean.
Will post pictures when I do. If it's like most of the other pipes I've gotten cheap, I'll probably use a bundle or two of pipe cleaners just getting it ready to smoke.
