    Returning Again After A Long Absence

    Thank you all for the welcome! I have since learned that I am having a BOY!!! I am stoked!! I was nominated for the free pipe project by another member who knew I was running out of tobacco and that I was not in the position to buy more. Luckily a package arrived with a few tins and even an...

    Dark Star

    Oh my how I miss this tobacco. It has probably been about two years since my last bowl of it. I actually added it to my Christmas wish list last week! :puffpipe:

    Star Trek Blends

    Love this thread! Not clever enough to add to it but I sure do love me some Star Trek! My favorite things... Pipes, Star Trek, and wet shaving and not necessarily in that order.

    Returning Again After A Long Absence

    Oh how I have missed this forum and all of the great people and information that come along with it! I have been very busy working two jobs trying to start a family and sleeping when I can! I can not believe it has been over a year or so since I have posted here although I have popped in to see...

    PAD Is Real!!! A Couple Of Month With The Disorder Realized (Pics)

    So not too sure what to say about it other than WOW... That did happen didn't it!! This is a realization post with a "please help identify this pipe" at the end. Let's start at the beginning. A couple months back I was cruising the bay and saw the pipe that is in the red pipe couch and I had to...

    Last Weekends Antique SCORES!! Pipe And Rack (Pics)

    So it has been a month and the pipe has just been sitting in my pipe rack with me not sure if I should smoke her or not. I really wanted to get the stem off before I did. Well today I picked it up and gave it another try and it moved!! I kept going and after a while and some shot nerves (afraid...

    Private Messages - House Cleaning

    I would like the option of selectively deleting messages. I personally like having some in there for reference because my memory is so HORRIBLE I can't remember certain things.

    Last Weekends Antique SCORES!! Pipe And Rack (Pics)

    Thank you all so much for the kind words. The girlfriend is happy that I now have most of my pipes on the rack and not scattered around the room! :rofl: (What she doesn't know is that now I have a need to fill the 4 racks I emptied to fill this one!!) As for the paneled pipe, I have still...

    Last Weekends Antique SCORES!! Pipe And Rack (Pics)

    So once again, another weekend and a few trips to the antique stores in town. I am very lucky the girlfriend likes to spend time together that way because I have been on a roll lately. So first up, this pipe... I saw it unsmoked, still in its box just begging for me to take it home. I am unsure...

    Awesome Antique Score (Again)

    I am very sorry about the late response. I have been working extra shifts to cover since we lost two guys in the same week! Thank you so much for the quick responses however, it is so cool to totally understand what I found! All of the stamping so on the pipe are as follows: LINKMAN'S (block...

    Awesome Antique Score (Again)

    I always get pretty lucky when I go to the antique show every month. It's the most exciting part of my month searching for this kind of stuff. My girlfriend spotted a a small "razobrite bath" thing she wanted me to get earlier in the day but it was priced $45 and came with a cheap Gillette Tech...

    Finally Finished Up The All Briar Pipe

    A few weeks or so ago I posted an all briar I found that needed some TLC. I didn't have some of the tools needed to do a resto on it so I waited... And waited... And finally was able to buy a senior reamer and some pipe polish. The rim was pretty beat but like some said, it adds to the pipes...

    Went Antique Hunting Today, Help With One Pipe Please (Pics)

    I should really resist posting from my phone. The phone likes to change random words and mess everything up. I hope you all can make sence of what I posted earlier. On another note, I cleaned the shank and stem with an alcohol soaked pipe cleaner and it was surprisingly clean! Once I can ream...

    Went Antique Hunting Today, Help With One Pipe Please (Pics)

    Fnord- that is a very generous offer! I would love to use the reamer for this thing so I don't do any more damage to the pipe. And that is for the comment about the condition. Makes me feel better about it being messed up as I am usually such a perfectionist. :rofl: If it is not too much to...

    Went Antique Hunting Today, Help With One Pipe Please (Pics)

    I knew you guys would pin point the maker of that pipe. Thanks a ton! So I started working with the all briar pipe and once I removed the TON of rim char and what seemed to be cake build up, I noticed the bowl was pretty messed up. :crying: someone really did a number while reaming the bowl...
