my most sentimental piece also happens to be my first piece. i never felt the need to get one till about 2 months ago and wow what a nice investment. i picked it up for $45 at my local headshop. lately i've been contemplating getting a chillum. funny thing...today i tried out the boil method of extracting resin i found on these forums and sadly it didn't work the first time for me either but hey next time i'll be able to do it right. youre gonna have to click here to see a picture of my pipe. don't worry its just a link to another post at this site
