    Looking Good, Pipesmagazine

    Well, isn't that nifty.

    Looking Good, Pipesmagazine

    Life has been busy as of late and I haven't checked in to see what is going on here on the forum in quite some time. Being a luddite, I will admit that at first I was quite intimidated by the new site and figuring out how it works, but then I easily concluded that if cigrmaster could learn...

    Very Sad News

    I am also sure that St Peter will be testing out some magnificent pipes and classic fishing rods with a wonderful smoking and fishing companion. RIP, Sante.

    Very Sad News

    I was away the last few days on a trip and I checked into facebook today and saw the news about Sante. This is devastating. He was a true gentleman and an all around class act. Not long ago he sent me a PM and told me he had a pipe he wanted to send me. I love that pipe and it will forever...

    What was your worst tasting tobacco?

    I am with voorhees. Any blend with deer tongue makes me hurl.

    Another Rad Davis For The Collection

    That is a great looking pipe. The gnarly blast looks weathered, much like Harris's own aging mug. What a perfect companion.

    New Ryan Alden Morta/Bakelite Comission

    Saw that on facebook (believe it was the same one) and thought it was just awesome. Congrats. I have a commission in with Ryan at the moment as well. Love his work.

    Canada customs returning package unopened

    There would be no point to someone in Canada ordering magic weed from Colorado. That stuff is legal here, is not heavily taxed, and is available in numerous places, both B&Ms and online.

    Canada customs returning package unopened

    And also, specifically in response to Sasquatch, my buddy was told that they do have a recent program where they are being vigilant about accurate declarations and are flagging vendors that don't comply. The CBSA sends the vendor a letter the first time warning them and after that, if they see...

    Canada customs returning package unopened

    And the customs declaration requires any tobacco to be expressly declared. So hobby supplies or candlemaking accoutrements or collectible tins is just simply not a proper declaration.

    Canada customs returning package unopened

    You got lucky. They could have seized it, which is precisely what happend to a recent order a friend made from the same vendor. He phoned the CBSA and chatted to a guy there. He was told that they are flagging anything coming in from 4noggins that are not accurately marked as tobacco and...

    Where To Sell; That Is The Question

    Pipestud is a good choice but you have to be prepared to take the results of the auction and he is clear that he sells the pipes as is. If you want to be able to set the price of your pipes, Mike at briar blues is a good choice. He does clean the pipes a bit and you set the selling price and...

    Klondike Gold

    It's one of my top virginias. I cellared hard before this one left. Try F&T's CVP.

    Kiribi vs IM Corona

    My IM Corona old boy is still going strong after 7 years use. I also bought a Kiribi awhile back but it only lasted 3 months before the arm popped off and the tiny, tiny screw went awol. That will be my last Kiribi.

    A Kind Word for Bamboo

    I actually really dig bamboo and have many in my collection. Some variations below. First a Satou with weathered bamboo: A Jess Chonowitsch billiard with clean bamboo: Another Satou, with bamboo for days (11 knuckle churchwarden): This next one is interesting - a Tyler Lane egg, but he...

    A Day With Harris/Cigarmaster

    I'm not worried about the bulldog. I figure we will just show it some affection - something I am sure it doesn't get with Harris - in order to win the dog over. The shotgun is a potential problem. Harris is as blind as a bat and only marginally less so than Stevie Wonder, so that may be the...

    My First (And Only) American Pipe [Pic Heavy]

    Awesome pipes. Nate makes great pipes - I have a few. I have to say though, I really like that Castello.

    No. 8 slices. Don't forget about that blend.

    A Day With Harris/Cigarmaster

    Nice job, Hoosier. Harris is so clueless I bet he never even suspected that you were casing the place for our joint operation code-named Tobacco Liberation. So I assume you know what security he has and where the tins are kept? Will we be able to circumvent the lasers?

    The (Un)Official Secret Santa 2018 Thread!

    Boy, do I have neat handwriting. Almost look like a chick wrote that. Many thanks, Dan. Just wanted to show you that your effort is appreciated.
