    Squadron Leader v Gawith Hogarth blends

    Is there a blend of Gawith Hogarth's that is an equivalent or very similar of Squadron Leader?

    Orlik Golden Sliced, and SG Squadron Leader availability

    I see 4noggins and Tobaccopipes don't have any OGS, or SG SL. Has anyone got any idea when they might become available again? I did the 'notify me' thing, but often that doesn't work.

    Ebony pipes

    That kind of duplicity is always in the back of my mind also.

    How To Home Stove Tobacco - Informational Only

    I've left a couple of 100g tins of Golden Sliced on the oil bar heater for a few hours. When they cooled, I opened one, and...whoa...smelt unbelievable. So the smoking of the same will be interesting.

    'Other' cobs

    Yep...that's where I'm coming from. Leaf won't burn evenly. Draw is difficult. I'm smoking an 'el cheapo' Chinese job ($7AUD), and it out-performs the MM items. Bad news as far as MM is concerned!

    'Other' cobs

    Who are they, please?

    'Other' cobs

    I'm comparing the crook ones with the other cobs I've used.

    'Other' cobs

    Are there any other companies besides MM making cobs. The last half dozen I bought were not good smokers, compared to my earlier purchases.

    Pipe mud

    No idea what 'Primus' is.

    Pipe mud

    What is that retarded crap?!

    Orlik Golden Sliced

    30% dearer than most places, and twice the cost of shipping. i.e. $USD65 for postage: that's $95Oz money for two tins of blend. At 4noggins it would be $29. I don't mind paying the going rate, I'm not 'squeezing' for super cheap, just a reasonable deal.

    Orlik Golden Sliced

    Sadly, Danny refuses to ship to Oz.

    Orlik Golden Sliced

    I checked that site out and their prices are eye-wateringly high compared to 4noggins, plus they wanted more for postage than what the order cost. I'll pass on price gouging.

    Orlik Golden Sliced

    SPC doesn't ship to Oz.

    Orlik Golden Sliced

    Does anyone have any inside running on when OGS is going to be available? Sold out at Jeff's & TobbacoPipes.

    Pipe mud

    Yeah, I did some up for two cobs, and it worked well.

    Brigham Pipes…Caution

    Try the 3/16 drill bit, and gently ease the diameter of the shaft where the filter is inserted. Softly, softly, catchee monkey.

    Brigham Pipes…Caution

    The thing I don't get is, how come Brigham is asleep at the wheel on this issue? Sounds very dumb to me.

    Brigham Pipes…Caution

    Well, I thought about the comment about the Brigham v Savinelli. Did some searching about the place and ended up getting a Savinelli Trevi Rusticated (606 KS). The rustication has been well done, and I like the larger bowl. It seems to present well. So time will tell what kind of performance...
