    Pipes and Cigars: Why the Hate?

    I have used the site several times of late with nice orders and the shipping at first had a lot of out of stocks and they still forget things but over all still the best place for pricing, free delivery over $100 and overall selection. And then there is Russ. I have nothing but respect for...

    Zippo Question

    The Thunderbird fits the standard size zippo shells. I don't like it as it is hard to light and does not last long. The only real options are the standard windproof or the pipe version.

    I Want Your Opinion

    That is a nice pipe and I have smoked all your tobacco choices but the Seattle Pipe Club blend and I think you will enjoy them, at least the three I have smoked.

    What's Your Favourite Cherry Blend

    I am not a huge fan of cherry blends myself, though I will enjoy a bowl now and then. I do however like Middleton's Cherry Blnd in a cob and always have a tub going to smoke now and then.

    Can Smoking Make Me Sick?

    I agree with the earlier poster that yes it sure can if you smoke on an empty stomach and if it has a higher nicotine hit. You will lose this tendency after you get seasoned. I have not gotton sick to my stomach in many years no matter the blend or if I am hungry or not.

    Selling pipes on PipeBid

    Well, I tested the waters with five pipes for $5.00 and I sold 2 of them. While I am glad for those 2 sales, I woulld have thought at that price I would have sold them all. So based on this, I am going to go on a trip for the Holidays and will be back after the 1st and I will try a few more...

    Meerschaum Availability?

    Judging by the internet and the amount of new meers on the market, it can't be in short supply too much.

    Multi pipe carry case

    I am looking for a multi pipe carry case to carry pipes in on a trip or to shows. I have yet to find one I like and that does not cost more than my luggage. Does anyone know of a good source for these. Ebay does not turn up any. I don't mean a 2-4 pipe pouch, I mean one that will carry over...

    I am impressed that this is only your second pipe. I am about to try and do one myself. I can only hope I can do half as well as you. And CA...well he is in a class of his own. I just aquired the estate of a wood carver and am learning how to use his tools. I will be ordering stummels very...

    Info on Briar Bid?

    Kevin, Thanks for the quick reaction to my complaint and resolving it. That was my intention all along. If we are going to be restricted to Briarbid, then it needs to be easy for us to so. I have sold one already, if I sell a few more then rest assured I will be listing more.

    A question

    Gunk is a combination of moisture and residue left behind from the tars in the pipe tobacco. A draft hole too small will concentrate it in one spot. Also the shape of the bottom of the bowl has a lot to do with this and also how much cake you have in the bottom. Opening up the draft hole...
