    How To Home Stove Tobacco - Informational Only

    I followed the instructions explicitly for a jar of LNF. But my Asperger's and numbers don't mix. I did mine at 190 C instead of F...Oh dear?! Anyway the stuff turned out to be toast. Literally, it was crunchy. For some reason I didn't throw it out. Thought about it a week later, and did the...

    Legends v Washington Cobs

    Drill the plug out with a Forstner bit. Get a piece of dowel, drill a bowl shape about a 1/4-3/8 inch deep. Drill a breather hole at the suitable place in the piece of dowel. Fit it to the bowl, lining up the breather holes, use some PVA wood glue. Piece of cake. Did it to a few of mine...

    Sandblasting in Oz

    Good call. But a wry observation, is, the Chinese stuff is getting very expensive, but the quality is the usual crapola. And yes, it is very disappointing that we seem to have a great skill in making life next to impossible for anyone that wants to work, or be self employed; artisans for...

    Australian Pipe Smoking Site

    Is anyone aware of an Oz pipe smoking site? The reason I ask is that when endeavouring to swap blends, nearly all the posts here are for the US, & and that big white place up there to the north. And postage to Oz is just eye-watering! If someone has a connection, I'd be grateful.

    Pipe Mud Again

    I found that in this humid weather here, in Queensland, I had to back off on the salt. I'm going to use .4 of a gram, and see how that fares. The last two I did they didn't harden up well at all. So, I figured I'd ease up on the salt a bit. I'm doing one tomorrow. Will keep you posted.
