Show Us Your Molina Pipes

[Scrapyard Ape]

Bought ths unfinished 104 two weeks ago. Still haven't smoked it because I cannot decide which tobacco to use for the first bowl.

Waiting for SP to restock a specific model then I’ll have my first Molina.

Ok... I've been smoking some simple burly blends to break it in. Gave it a light wipe with olive oil and a soft cloth. I'm liking the color now.

Here's the before & after...

I have over a dozen Molinas and I'm happy with them. They may be inexpensive, but they have a really good draw and most are very stylish.

I have two: one billiard and one bent (Dublin?). I’m relatively new to the hobby. I have 7 pipes so far and I think the Molina are my favorites along with my Savinelli Roma Lucite. They smoke better than a couple pipes I have that cost twice as much. I’ll continue collecting Molina to find what shapes I like best. They look great too, imho.

That layer of oil really brought the grain out!
