    Metro Detroit Pipe Club Road Trip number 2

    I would love to go! Would my wife and I be welcome? We can possibly go the 31st

    Father the Flame, PAD, TAD, and more!

    Yeah, it was definitely disappointing. And I want it to be known that I, by no means, meant my post to be abrasive or hostile! The manager was very nice. He and I talked pipes and tobacco for a good hour at least. He just stated the fact that the GR club is men only. I do want to be more...

    Father the Flame, PAD, TAD, and more!

    I'm from Grand Rapids! I went into Indian River Tobacco this past week to smokey my pipe in the lounge with my wife. The manager talked to me a bit and said the pipe club met there, but it was men only. Man, I was bummed. I am a female so unfortunately I can't join. :( If you hear of anything in...

    Spring is coming

    Only a few things are better than sitting at a baseball game on a hot day with a cold beer. Personal opinion. Go Rays!

    Received a Gift Today!

    Thank you for the advice on oxidation removal! Fishnbanjo told me it would have oxidation on arrival. I just couldn't wait to thank him and show everyone so I posted pics quickly. I'll have to go get some micro mesh pads and give it a whirl. She fits nicely in my hand and I love the big bowl! So...

    Received a Gift Today!

    Today, I received this gorgeous Thurmann pipe in the mail from fishnbanjo. I know I am not on the forums as much as a lot of you, and I don't have those strong relationships a lot of you have with one another on here because of how little I get on during the school year, but I love how this...

    Made My First Pipe (Picture Heavy)

    Yeah, I like working with my hands. and I just meant that is all I can afford right now. I'll save up and get some tools later in life. But it's fun workin hard at it with the tools I have. Therapeutic!

    Exactly what phil67 said. I am a broke college student with no workshop of my own yet, so these are my tools for now. Someday, I'll own the works!

    Young(er) Pipe Smokers

    Great to see that there are a lot of young smokers! I'm 23, will be 24 in a few months, and I started when I was 21. I love it. I am a girl, but my Grandpa smoked a pipe when he was younger. I faintly remember it. And I found out my dad owned a pipe in college, though he prefers the occasional...

    Pipe Smoking Astrophotographers/Astronomers?

    Oh goodness. This thread is amazing. I LOVE astronomy and have a telescope myself. I agree that putting that and pipe smoking together is amazing.

    Made My First Pipe (Picture Heavy)

    Thanks, all! iamn8, I didn't use the typical tools most people use, so my cost will be lower than it would be for someone using a lathe and sandbelt. Here is the list of tools and supplies: Battery powered Dremel: On sale on Black Friday for $15, full price $25. Battery charger and 2 sets...

    Made My First Pipe (Picture Heavy)

    I haven't had the opportunity to smoke it yet. I live in Michigan and it is too cold outside (5 degrees, I think?) to smoke, and I am not allowed to smoke in our house :cry: This afternoon I'll be heading to a local smoke shop with a lounge to try it out! I'll let you know how it goes.
