This is a ventilated pipe with holes and rings throughout the bowl that are used for cooling.' Mincer developed The Doodler as well , with its holes around the bowl passing through concentric bands to increase the cooling surface of the pipeMincer was always looking for a way to create a cooler-smoking pipe and This pipe was his answer. After cutting concentric rings around the thick bowls of the pipes, carved virtually the same as his popular Custombilts, Mincer proceeded to drill up to a dozen vertical shafts between the outer and inner edges of the bowl greatly increasing the flow of air around the bowl.Briar is a very nice color and has the most beautiful grain all around and it feels very light weight http://www.pipephil.eu/logos/en/logo-t2.html Low Start - No Reserve I never want anyone that buys from me to be unhappy in any way so…..
