As a traveller, I find it quite tedious having to go to The Shire and search high and low to find a bartender that will sell Hobbit pipes. It doesn't make very much sense that only Hobbits should have these, and that these be uncraftable. Hobbits, the race of Men, and Dwarves all seemed to either frequently or infrequently use them.

I propose that Hobbit pipes be renamed simply "pipe"s. And that they be far more common than they currently are, found in all sorts of Mannish chests uncommonly, and Dwarvish chests rarely. As well as being found more frequently in Hobbit chests. I also suggest a crafting recipe, comprised of 1 stick and 1 wood plank, in a crafting grid horizontally (open for debate on a different, perhaps better crafting recipe).

For a bit of flair, I also suggest different planks used in the crafting would produce a pipe of the color and shade of that specific plank.

Furthermore,

I suggest that there be different types of magic-smoke. The sailing ship crafted with the mithril nugget; but also perhaps butterflies, crafted with a silver nugget, or perhaps a special Elvish flower. And an exceptionally beautiful magic-smoke shape, a dragon, crafted with a pipe using Ithildin.

Although, a dragon might be a bit too far-fetched or pesky to try and model. I would like some ideas of other shapes that an Ithildin magic-smoke might produce. As always, thank you for reading, and criticisms and improvements upon the suggestion are welcomed and encouraged!
