I'm a big fan of micoli pipes, and just today found www.micoli.com which has pics of his pipes, along with pipes for sale. It goes on to say that he will be making new pipes. Had anyone have any more info on this?

Thanks for all the input. I cant do the fire thing unfortunately because it has a military mortise. I like the taste the clay gives the smoke, kind of earthy.
I just got my pipes back from being cleaned (Thanks Lonestar), and started smoking my clay and meer. I know cake isn't wanted on a meer, is that also true for clay pipes? Also, what is the best way to clean the bowls after each use? I read that alcohol shouldnt be used...
Thanks

When I smoke I always end up getting a bit of buildup/blackening on the bowl rim. I was planning on lightly cleaning the rim with alcohol and then applying carnuba over the entire bowl. Is this the best solution or is there a better way?
Thanks
Look to be 2 custombilts, although bottom one could be a different brand. I have 3, they smoke great. When you get them, check the markings. If they are marked custom-bilt, they are early custombilts. Those are the most highly prized.
From the link posted and what everyones posted, I think I'll leaqve the tins as is. I do have a couple blends I only smoke 3-4 times a month, so I'll put those in the mason jars.
