    Olfactory Smokers

    Does anybody else derive most of their pipe smoking pleasure from the smell of the burning tobacco? I've come to the realization that I enjoy the smoke through the sinuses more than the actual tasting with the tongue. I almost primarily take a pull and then immediately french inhale or...

    C&D Night Train

    Not so much of a review and maybe should be elsewhere. Does anybody else get a sour milk note when opening a tin, for those of you that have worked with red oak, it has that sour almost pissy smell to it. Doesn't seem to translate to the smoke, but it did almost turn me off of trying it. I do...

    Meet Lumpy

    I seem to have a habit of putting a name to each pipe I make, somewhat for reference in my pictures to make them easier to find. Also don't care for numbering them, anyway, here's one I completed a couple days ago. Rest of the pics and specs here...

    Something Similar To SG BBF and/or GH BF U/S

    I've become pretty partial to both SG Best Brown Flake and GH Brown Flake Unscented, are there any others with a similar profile that are a bit easier to acquire, starting to run low on the BBF and not knowing when they may actually drop next (hung up somewhere or whatever the deal is)

    Any Cat Lovers Around Here?

    I've seen some mention their cats in other threads. We have 2 Savannah cats that are almost a year and a half old now. After losing our big buddy Tiger last year we decided to get 2 cats this time around. Not sure how I convinced the wife into getting a Savannah and was totally floored when she...

    Poll-What Finish Do You Like on Your Pipes

    As a somewhat new pipemaker, 2yrs now, I thought I might pose the question, what type of finish do you like? I'd like to just get a cross-section idea of what people prefer when they're looking for a new pipe. Are you a smooth pipe guy/gal, do you like a blasted finish, if so do you prefer just...

    Hello from the state of Misery (Missouri)

    Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen, I started smoking a pipe sometime in 1982 and after a few years I dropped it, flash forward to 2014 I quit smoking cigarettes and in 2017 I decided to pick up a pipe and a couple tobaccos to try out. I was hooked and started perusing the interwebs for pipes...
