Dirty Estate Pipes
In general I despise alot of ebay estate pipe sellers due to the shady stuff they pull. I support those that are good accordingly. I find the best items available to be from random non-specific sellers. I've had really good luck as a result, I don't buy too many ebay pipes or spend more money...- spicy_boiii

Sasieni Eight Dot - $10 Buy?
Your the one who bought that! Well at least it went to a good home. I remember seeing it listed as a "Burl pipe", and got busy with work during the end of the bidding. I knew it was a Sasieni. Looks legit from my end (obviously I was intending to buy it), but I don't have the expertise to claim...- spicy_boiii

Nirvana Smokes
This. I just had one with SWR in a cob. It doesn't need to be fancy for me, just a blend that scratches the itch and a well executed pack/pipe/smoke.- spicy_boiii

Track Day Junkies or Car Enthusiasts Here?
Here's me at the track on my FZ-10. I got the lady into it this year at well. Now she wants to compete lol. COVID made it hard to get out as much as I wanted - I did maybe 6? days on the track this year. Anyways I'll do some car track stuff in the future. I've got other financial stuff that...- spicy_boiii

Thoughts on Giant Pipes
Liking a pipe and it being great for smoking aren't always the same thing. I haven't personally found a blend that smokes best in a very wide and/or very tall bowl. But again, preferences are preferences. I smoke what I like and everyone else should do the same. The few big pipes I have are...- spicy_boiii

How Much Air Space When Jarring Bulk?
Same here. I originally left some space and didn't force things. Another 100 pounds later and I'm literally compressing stuff into jars. Since I've started using Mylar I don't force it anymore.- spicy_boiii

Smoking a Pipe at 36
30's here. I smoke mostly privately, but refuse to abstain when it's appropriate and respectful to smoke around others. But I definitely get shit for it, alot of it do to the irony of it and my title/profession at work. Whatever. I'm into alot of things that others aren't. I like to say I've...- spicy_boiii

Some Of The Worlds Hottest Spices
Nice! That Puckerbutt is a good choice if you want hot and to taste the base pepper without too much added flavoring. For delicious, unique, and still very hot, may I recommend Burns and McCoy (Exhorresco) and Angry Goat pepper company (Purple Hippo). For something less hot, Secret Aardvark...- spicy_boiii

Top 5 Blends To Cellar Deeply
Most my celler is Va(/per) or Va/or(/per). Somewhat misleading because I've added some perique or orientals to some of my bulk. Apart from some unicorn and limited odds and ends my cellar is mostly finished ("Time to stop cultivating and start harvesting"). If I was to make a top 5, it would be...- spicy_boiii

Falcon Pipes
Thanks I'll check it out. There's a weird gluey substance near the bottom of the bowl below the Meer coating. I only noticed it when it was new and wiping out the bowl. As far as the rest of the bowl, I've had no issues, and it deals with abuse pretty well. I'd say I have maybe 200 bowls...- spicy_boiii

Falcon Pipes
My falcon is a crucial pipe in my arsenal. I have a Meer-lined bowl which I use to smoke aromatics or anything with any lasting pungency which I haven't had before. The Meer bowl is easy to clean, is resistant to forming a strong ghost, and obviously the Falcon stem doesn't ghost at all. I...- spicy_boiii

Beware Seller!
I've bought very little but bid and watch on alot on Ebay. Some sellers have buffed the original finish off or replaced stems and there is no mention of it in the description. Other use the photo "angles" like a teenage girl on instagram to hide any issues and provide only good shots of the...- spicy_boiii

Pack It To The Brim, Or Not?
I always pack mine to the top, which I am trying to get out of the habit of doing. I find it makes it more likely that I'll pack it too firm initially. I'm trying to start packing two pipes if I want a long smoke. The nice part about that, is that if I change my mind about what I'm smoking or...- spicy_boiii
