Title: Resourceful am I!
Post by: gitfiddl on 07/07/2012 02:38 PM
I'm the occasional pipe smoker, a bowl or two a week.  I really wanted an ashtray with a knocker (I was tired of using the heel of my shoe!).  I've got plenty of ashtrays, but was lacking the cork knocker and always forgot to pick one up when I was ordering stuff.  As I poured the last shot out of a bottle of Patron Silver, I had an epiphany!

It's an Alpha my Mom gave to my Dad back in the early to mid 1980's, probably purchased at Edwards.
