I should have made it clearer in post #61. He is most likely going to be using the last of his morta for our pipes. He didn't want to at first because he hasn't been able to get some from his supplier due to political turmoil in that part of the world. But he said it's for a good cause and that he's getting older and no need to hoard the morta while there are guys willing to buy it now.
That just makes it even better. Mark is a great guy. His pipes are always awesome smokers and they look gorgeous. He quickly responds to emails and his customer service is top notch. It makes me feel even better that B&B continues to use Mark as our carver for the LE pipes.
