I'm wondering a little, just out of curiosity, because the LE is always out of my price range. But it's always nice to see. Now, if Missouri Meerschaum was on tap to make it, I'd wonder a lot more seriously.
At this point, it's entirely conjecture. But hell, that's part of the fun...I too was thinking about it while smoking some McCranie's Red Ribbon 2008 in my 2014 LE. Yeah, I'm in. So.....who's coordinating this shindig? Where we at? Who's making it? What will it look like? What will it cost? C'mon, c'mon! Details, man! Details.
Historically it's been a moderator connected with our little corner in some way. Haven't been spending as much time here recently, so I don't know if there are any new mods to be tapped. Maybe someone has been asked to do repeat duty, or (probably unlikely) the design duty has been passed down to one of our illustrious BL stews.So.....who's coordinating this shindig?
I'm guessing we are somewhere in the process of design ideas going back & forth with the carver.Where we at?
The only question with any semblance of a solid answer. I suppose it could be anyone, but Mark Tinsky did the 2012, the 2013, & the 2014. I can't think of any reason why he wouldn't be doing this one.Who's making it?
This is the fun part. I have a couple ideas I'm kinda partial to, but it's safe to say that it will likely be a fairly classic shape & design, probably none of the ones we've already seen.What will it look like?
Somewhere in the neighborhood of $200, probably +/- 25 or so. I think Steve had a great idea last year to have the pipe in two different finishes in order to be able to offer it at different price points. Made it a little easier I think.What will it cost?

Now I'm really starting to wonder about that shape...
lol, i know whose working behind the scenes on this, but ive been told that if i leak his name ill have to sleep with one open...even then i have been harassing him for info, but he is being stubbornly tight lipped....
Oh no. This is going to be THAT thread isn't it. We'll be jumping with anticipation every time a post is made in here eventually.
