    New Estate - Peterson Churchwarden

    After 3 visits to a 2nd hand store I finally struck pipe gold. I enquired after tobacco pipes and the store guy said they had a big pipe in the front counter, after a close inspection, I purchased it. It was looking much rougher that shown in the photos and I wasn't sure how well it would clean...

    Vintage Pipe Stand

    Thanks all, the pouch was another vintage market find. There is a bit of good stuff out there though not as much as I'd like. Good pipes seem to be hard to find, though I did get a very nice churchwarden a few days ago.

    I bought this pipe stand recently from a local vintage store. Very tidy porcelain stand, made in Italy. Dark brown with a tan leather strip around the base.

    How Much Tobacco Does a Jar Hold?

    I have been importing some whole leaf tobacco, as it is a far cheaper option than buying pre-packaged tobacco here. My plan is to make up a few blends and store it away in jars to age a bit and build up a cellar. I have plenty of 1/2 pint and pint jars but was wondering how much tobacco to pack...

    Good PAD/TAD Day

    Mike, I'm in New Zealand. Here a 50 gram costs just over $100, I've started importing a few pounds of whole leaf which has no tax added, I can get pound sent over for half the cost of a 50 gram tin.

    Good PAD/TAD Day

    After 3 weeks of nervous waiting a package arrived today, it was sent by a forum member who had offerd to sell me a couple of pipes. I've not had much joy in finding decent estate pipes here so I chose 2 from his selection and was also offered some tobacco to purchase also, which I gladly...

    Implants Update

    I too will be looking at getting dental implants this year. I have recently relocated south to Dunedin which has a dental school at the university and can hopefully get the work done there at a much lower cost.
