Joe Nelson Panel #4 of the 7 North American Panel Set
I just received my Joe Nelson panel ( Old Nellie Pipes). His shaping and his take on the panel is absolutely perfect. The proportions and design of this panel show his level of craftsmanship.I had the first smoke in it and it is going to be a dedicated Va/Per pipe. Joe was great to work with and... -
Taking Advantage of the Dip in the Euro
I noticed the Euro is quite low vs. the dollar ( 1.16 $ / 1 euro) so I hit up some of the known Italian websites. I found if you order in dollars they do not have a favorable exchange but if you order in Euro your credit card may have the correct rate. I was able to grab two pipes for at least... -

Nothing Like a Few Boxes When You Get Home
Besides my pair of Layton brandies; I experienced a little PAD last week . I grabbed a new Becker from SP , and a barely smoked Jody Davis from ebay. I have to say that it is hard to decide what one to smoke first. Now I have to slow down and save for Chicago. -

My First PAD
My first new Castello , and a 1976 barely used estate panel. I have to say the first smoke form the Castello confirmed what everyone says about them - the briar does add a sweet taste to the initial smoke. I am seriously tempted to go to the Chicago Pipe show but I am sure it will cost me . Link -
My First Month
I just passed one month since I switched from cigars to pipes. After logging many hours on this site I have learned some really great info ( thanks to all). I have found some things on my own ( the hard way. ) Mistakes: 1. I spent way too much on too many different types of tobacco. I have...- nurseman
