Who said you were the one shooting? I've heard your pinko-pacifist comments before! You're clearly the one bowing down and getting shot in the backToddJohnson wrote:Come on, Ben. I'm a lover not a fighter.bscofield wrote:

Yes, it does. Unfortunately, I think most of what's been said in the private forum would be far more helpful in the public forum where indignance over not being spoon-fed--or not being spoon-fed with the preferred spoon--seems to run rampant.bscofield wrote:Who said you were the one shooting?

For real... when that topic erupts it really erupts, huh?
Wouldn't a larger diameter make it more difficult to draw through 12", considering the larger volume of "air" required to pull a puff?ckr wrote:For a 12 inch stem you may want to bump the diameter up to 11/64.
Fascinating stuff! Thanks for the lesson.KurtHuhn wrote:I really, REALLY hate to bring this up ( ) - but it's about fluid dynamics.
So, a churchwarden stem with a well designed/crafted 5/32 or 11/64 channel will have less flow resistance than one with a 1/8 or 9/64 channel. The difference in air/smoke volume isn't enormous, but the resulting quality of the smoke is.
