    In Praise of Mixture 79

    The TL;DR version is that I like this stuff and recommend it. Sutliff’s Mixture 79 is a blend I had been curious about for a long time. Finally, roughy six weeks ago I finally bought a pouch. This pouch had no seal and some of the toppings you hear so much about with this blend may have...

    I didn’t know about these meerschaum Sherlock Holmes pipes, was this something that was just done for a short time or do they still make them? https://www.ebay.com/itm/256392476890

    GBD Rondelle Transplant Help

    I would like it to look good, but I didn’t need it to be perfect. I have a pretty full wood shop available to me, but I only have a vague notion of the tools that are applicable to this situation. I’m willing to put in some time. I am looking forward to this project.

    GBD Rondelle Transplant Help

    Here is the “intact” stem pushed in to the good stummel. I am starting to think it might make more sense to try and make this stem fit? Or am I wrong?

    GBD Rondelle Transplant Help

    Here are the pipes I hope to do the transplant upon. I don’t have much money in these pipes, and they aren’t valuable collectors items either, so I may go for it after I think about it a while longer and then overthink it also. I did try the stem with the intact logo in the pipe with the...

    Wow, it’s like you stuck a shiv in the side of innocent 1989 and then handed it around for others to repeat the action. Now I feel like I have to vote even MORE for 1989 because of the damage it has taken. 😂 lol Long Live 1989!!!

    Who Made This Weber Pipe?

    I’m not sure if this helps anything, but I found another example of a Weber made in England. Based on google searching, it would seem they aren’t common.

    GBD Rondelle Transplant Help

    Thanks for the tips! I bought this pipe just for the rondelle, so I’m not worried about the stem. It’s really just a donor. I am now concerned I won’t be able to do it at all. I guess there is only one way to find out. There is something I’m curious about though, if they are this hard to...

    GBD Rondelle Transplant Help

    I’m going to bump this and hope I find some help. I see info on the web about placing it on a stem, but I haven’t seen anything about removing one. Anyone?

    I understand that, I have a chihuahua who hates the cold. She starts to pre-shiver before we even get outside.
