*ONLY PARTICIPATE IF YOU HAVE A DEPOSIT DOWN ON ONE OF THESE PIPES*

Please choose whether or not you would like the base angle reduced on our 2014 BOTL Pipe. (vote in the poll, above!)

Suggestion:
The only thing I would consider is possibly a lesser degree angle on the base, but I don't know how the balance is currently. Is that even a possibility, or would that make it too tippy?
Second:
I agree with Clint. Might be better to lesson the slant
Third:
I agree with both, but only, like Clint said, if the balance is still good.

How's the ballance with a fill of tobacco?
Hey guys, I have not packed a bowl in it but given the foot print of the pipe it will balance with a full bowl. I can also lessen the angle which I will still be able to keep the balance full or empty. Should we put a poll out for how steep of angle? How much less would we want to see?, half way between where it is now and flat bottomed?

It's too late to get one of these, right? :-/
Yeah, this run is done, but hopefully we can do another one down the road. Perhaps a 2015 BOTL Pipe of the Year?! :eyebrow:
I can put you on the wait list just in case people pull out, but that list is already getting deep and I really don't foresee even one person changing their mind at this point... Sorry!

I will say again, I love how this looks and I hate to mess with a good thing. But as long as it is able to sit on its own with baccy in it, i am good. That pipe is beautiful and a true work of art.
