2012 Pipe In the Hat Trade

Cory · Post by **Cory** » Sun Feb 10, 2013 11:31 pm

Sent you back a PM Jesse. If we can hold off until next Sunday (2/17), I will have one to submit. I have no tools in my apartment and full time internship doesn't allow much time to make the trek to my parent's house to work on pipes.

Sorry guys! I completely understand if you want to move on without me.

So what we will do, unless there are any objections, is to include Cory's name in the drawing. The people he is next to on the list will need to coordinate with Cory when he gets his entry finished. If for some reason Cory doesn't get done, we will just remove his name from the list and proceed as normal.

Still haven't heard from Leus and mightysmurf281, but I think everyone is ready for the list.

Question to the participants: should we include them for now and go ahead and make the list?

When is the last time we heard from either of them?

Ok folks. Had lots of pm messages. Looks like we'll be comprising the list of folks that we've heard from.

We've had a pretty strong turnout and I'd personally like to thank everyone who participated.

So without further ado!

This list was composed by using http://www.random.org

To quote Kurt in previous trades:

As with previous trades, you send your pipe to the person below you, and the last person on the list sends theirs to the first. Send each other a PM to arrange for shipment.

Most of all, use this as an opportunity to get and give honest and constructive feedback regarding your pipes. Nothing is quite as helpful and detailed as hands-on feedback.

Special notes:
1.For those sending a pipe to Christian Tarock or recieving one from him, rev will be your contact. Please PM rev for details.
2. If you haven't been included because of lack of contact and would like to be (by that I mean have a pipe that is done or close to done) please pm me and we'll put you in.

So this seems like it should be a very simple thing to do. Send your pipe to the person below you and the last person(which i am) sends to the first. The one thing that is making me stop and ask is the two sets of numbers next to each name. We are using the first set of numbers correct? I am assuming the second set was left over from the before. So my pipe goes to Massis and i will be receiving one from Gershom. Sorry to ask but i just want to get this right.

Massis · Post by **Massis** » Mon Feb 11, 2013 2:36 am

Was wondering the same thing Brewmaster, but I signed up 2nd and rev first, so yeah, those are the numbers from the original list.

I'm getting the cheaters pipe (j/k! looking forward to it!) and sending mine to Christian.
Rev & Brew, I'll pm you later tonight (for reference it's 7.30 am here now)

Walle · Post by **Walle** » Mon Feb 11, 2013 6:04 am

Hurrah!

Hopefullx all mine pretty soon.
(You know: In comparison the distance between Sweden and Germany is really short

)

Cheerio!

I just deleted that second set of numbers. Hopefully that makes things a bit more clear. Sorry about the confusion!

Yay! The list!

Watch out, Walle. I will not be gentle.

I mean, seriously. How am I supposed to offer critique on one of Walle's pipes? "Do this more better?"

Well I'm totally excited. I can't wait to send off my pipe.

Edit: or enjoy my new Wallenstein.

bwahahahahaha Scottie gets Scottie.

So you can always be reminded of your pregasoraus ways. I will send this out tomorrow, I need the get the pipe bag finished. Please try not to be as mean spirited and petty when you critique my pipe as you are in normal everyday life. I am a fragile little thing.

selfishly I am very happy, I get to give my pipe to you. I hope you enjoy it. And I am not sure anyone here, cept maybe Walle, loves Christian's pipes as much as I do. Very happy.

My husband started rolling on the floor he was laughing so hard when I showed him the list. I knew that I would get your pipe and have been prepaired (HAHAHAHA) for it. How flattering to have a pipe made in your honor and then have the ability to add it to your collection!!

All jesting aside......I will do nothing but give honest feedback

..................or will I??

Massis · Post by **Massis** » Mon Feb 11, 2013 10:24 am

I didn't really know Christian before this PITH, but his pipes are amazing. I'm quite sure you're not the only one who loves them!

I hope he'll love mine as much

PMs sent to Rev and Brewmaster.

Eric, I got your pipe and PMed you.

d.huber · Post by **d.huber** » Thu Feb 14, 2013 9:16 pm

Haven't heard from D Marshall. Sent another PM to touch base.

mredmond · Post by **mredmond** » Thu Feb 14, 2013 9:50 pm

I'm a little late posting pictures, but here's one. The angle is a little funny, my button is the same height on top and bottom, but it doesn't look like it in this picture. There are some things I think could be better, but it ought to smoke decently. Independently, I ended up doing a similar drilling as Walt. It's a sort of cavalier meets system meets calabash type thing. I figured if you're going to do some weird drilling, do some weird drilling. The draw is still good, despite the weirdness, and all the extra holes make for an easy clench despite it's relative rotundness.
