Did you make that? If so that's a cool looking "Bruck Ball" you're smoking. Originally Posted by Bruck

Very good. How about "wrecking ball?" Originally Posted by GWBowman

I initially wanted to make a pipe out of a pool ball, like the 8 ball, but discovered to my dismay that they don't make pool balls out of wood anymore. So I got some birch balls instead. This one's just a proof of concept - I may try to make some more customized ones in the future.
How does it smoke? Pretty well IIDSSM. I had to pre-char the inner bowl with a blowtorch to get rid of the nasty woody taste, but since then it's been fine.You oughta know not to stand by the window, somebody see you up there.

Getting ready to smoke some GL Pease Navigator in a smooth Brewster billiard. This tobacco was graciously sent to me by @mooster . I just found out his last name is the same as my wife's maiden name. To quote the great philosopher Steven Wright, "It's a small world, but I wouldn't want to have to paint it."
