    Pipe Tool Cleaning Question

    Sparks - Thank you for that suggestion. I think I'm going to start off with the boiling water then use soap and water and finish it off with some alcohol for good measure. Coalsmoke - our camera is horrible but I'm working on getting a decent one by the end of the year. :-) Redbeard - Thank you...

    Pipe Tool Cleaning Question

    Redbeard - I don't have barbers friend and the finish is what I'm most worried about with the Yellow Bole; it seems to be made of aluminum. But I'm not sure if that's accurate.

    Pipe Tool Cleaning Question

    Sparks - Agreed with the Czech's :D but I really like the Yellow Bole and haven't found another. Plus these were thrown in for free with the 3 pipes and 6-pipe pipe rack with humidor I purchased; just thought I might as well clean them up for use since I have them. :-)

    Pipe Tool Cleaning Question

    I just acquired 2 Czech tools and a Yellow Bole tool from an estate sale. They haven't been used in over 20yrs, per the granddaughter, and they were thrown in a box and forgotten about with cake - that won't come off with a scratch of the nail - and what looks to be like coffee stains, not to...

    tlag77 - Thank you very much! The grain is amazing. The pics above really don't do it justice. I'm going to have to invest in a good camera and find a good lit area for future pics lol. Cheers!

    How Many Pipes Do You Own?

    My humble collection will most certainly be dwarfed by most. But I like it thus far and it will continue to grow over the years. :D I just received my 9th pipe this week and the 10th should be in by the end of next week. The collection by then will include 9 briars (5 artisan made) and a MM...

    Thank God for American Engineering

    Wow. So glad to hear that both parties involved were not severely injured. Too bad for your car, but the good thing about material things is that they can always be replaced. Cheers.

    New Scott Hudson Pipe!! (Pic Heavy)

    Andy - Thank you! And to think I originally asked for his rusticated 1029.1 (side of bowl is fully rusticated - on his site) except in a much bigger size. But he couldn't bare covering up this grain once he started working on the block lol and I'm glad he made that call! I'm definitely going to...
