Talbert Pipes- Website update, finally!

[Trever Talbert]

Hello all!  
I've just posted the first (and only, at least for open sale) Talbert 2010 Halloween pipe in the Talbert catalog. I'm booked up on commissioned requests for Halloween pipes and I strongly suspect they will keep me busy right through Halloween at this point, so most likely there will be no other Halloween pipes for open sale. Next year, I'll start this project a LOT earlier...!

In other news, I've also posted 5 new Ligne Bretagnes to our LB catalog, including the very first pipe to be sandblasted with our company's new compressor - Read the full story in our pipe blog, if you haven't already. It is incredibly nice to have access to a powerful compressor again, and most likely I'll be sandblasting everything in sight now, with the slightest excuse, so our pipe output should rise though the proportion of smooths will probably decline, at least for a while.

My apologies for the long delay since the last update, but we've been on a semi-vacation during a big chunk of August - Our first actual "relaxation period" since 2001, even though we did not actually go anywhere. I've also been spending a fair bit of time compressor shopping and handling the delivery and setup of the thing, as well as helping out a bit with Pipe & Pint's website. P&P has lost their webmaster, so I'll be working with them for a little while to help keep their site updated and current. Between that, my Halloween pipe orders, and taking time out to visit every autumn fair and carnival and haunted house within driving distance, it looks like a couple of busy months ahead!

Thanks for your time!
Happy Smoking,
Trever Talbert
