  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

So after being on wait list for about a year with a shop in England, this beauty came in a package today. They don't seem to make this particular style as much. It's a Peterson Rosslare sandblast in the 999 shape :)

Yea they are my weakness for favorite shape lol. Haven't smoked it yet but the drilling looks spot on and here's the shop info. Gentleman who runs it, Kris is a class act to deal with.

Jealous, thats a dang nice pipe...
Thank you. My 2nd Boswell pipe. It's "hefty" alright too. Just a little out of my price range "budget", so I let it slide a while. Figured someone else would pick it up. Then last week I said hell with it, I wanted it even though it's out of the max budget price I allow myself. The grain and red bit are amazing together. Briar is really dark but nice. The pictures really don't do justice. Honestly, looked smaller on the computer until I opened the box this morning. And Dan was nice enough to toss in an extra ounce of baccy for me although I said I'd purchase the additional ounce to try out.
