THE 2026 CORPS PIPE OF THE YEAR
EXCITING NEWS
Our CORPS 2026 Pipe of Year is READY TO ORDER!
This year we've decided to partner with Chris Morgan and his Bones line to offer club members a unique and quality Pipe of the Year at a more accessible price. Members can select the shape and finish they find most appealing and create a one-of-a-kind POY that they can enjoy for years to come. Below is some background on Bones pipes, and instructions on how to order your POY from Chris's website and shipped directly to you. The deadline for ordering will be March 31st, 2026 and Chris plans to complete the pipes and have them shipped by mid-April.
The pipes are carefully shaped, sandblasted, and then joined with precision to the acrylic Italian made stems via a delrin tenon, resulting in a durable and aesthetically pleasing pipe. The sandblasting not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the pipes but also provides durability and a unique tactile experience for the smoker.
Whether you are a seasoned pipe smoker or an admirer of fine craftsmanship, exploring the world of Bones Pipes from Morgan Pipes is an invitation to indulge . Each pipe tells a story, connecting the past with the present, and offering a timeless experience to those who appreciate the beauty of functional art.
