Collecting Ethos
I can't say this as eloquently as Jesse ( @sablebrush52 ) but I'll take a shot anyway. First, I do what suits me. I like what I like and I'm happy that other people can appreciate some of the pipes I have but I have them for me first. Second, I wouldn't use the term "ethos" but rather the...- shanez

I Had to Pull the Trigger
Vipratti does make pipes with curved airways so I'm guessing it is curved. Curved or straight it's a beautiful pipe. -

Got My Hands On Some Holker Twist
A big thank you goes to fellow member @karam ! It's love at first try! The rope was nice and pliable to the touch and fairly oily but didn't leave an oily feel on my fingers. The bag note was very pleasantly very figgy. The Virginia definitely reminded me of a GH&C product. High quality and...- shanez

Tri-Tip Dry Brine Experiment
So I hit the tips with some Bad Byron's Butt Rub this morning and let the sit on the counter for about an hour. Then they went into a 150 degree smoker where they very slowly came up to 125 then I put the spurs to them at 225 degrees. Pulled them when they hit 140, wrapped them in parchment...- shanez
