Tim Fuller: Adagio
 
 
   
|  | While I don't buy new pipes too often these days, occasionally I am tempted. As a sort of friendship thing, I was checking out Tim Fuller's web pages, and found myself lingering over one particular pipe. Well, at the same time I received a note from Paypal stating that it was to be a "no fee" day. So prompted, I went ahead and made the purchase: A TCFuller grade 2 (middle class through Tim's rating system). 
What had attracted me were all the slow curves: the curve of the pipe itself, the parallel curve along top of the bowl, and the curve of the grain itself as shown in one closeup of the bowl.

|  | And although a large-bowl pipe, it is quite light, only about two and a half ounces. It fits great in my hand, and as named, Adagio gives a slow, steady smoke, even from the first bowls. | |
