    I had 4 SG tins from April of this year and never checked the seal. Because of this thread I’ve Just now I sealed each in a food grade vacuum sealer. Hopefully they aren’t too dry already…

    Recent TAD Pick-Ups

    Yesterday I picked up a pouch of Amphora just to try. The local grocery store used to carry Carter Hall and Prince Albert, now only this for some reason. From 4Noggins I picked up a few tins for Fillmore: And from Little Anthony’s in Auburn Alabama a couple of 2.5+ year old tins:

    The 250g boxes aren’t listed on SP anymore. This leads me to believe they are no longer available?

    $15/tin is a little steep. They will sell out quickly whether I agree with the price or not, so no sweat either way. :-)

    Leica is a very well respected brand with excellent quality. I have used 24mp Sony full frame cameras for years and have never felt that I needed higher pixel density. I have a nice Loxia 25mm (Distagon design) for landscapes and a reasonably good 50mm (2.5 "G") and they handle everything...

    I will indeed be trying this. I enjoy blurred motion captures in general so there is plenty to work with. The lens is not sharp by modern standards, even with a forgiving FF 24mp sensor, but I like the rendering. I may post one tomorrow… No pipe tonight, too cold outside…

    C&D Gray Ghost in the Savinelli 677. Turning out to be a great combo; I may dedicate the pipe to this blend… I hope everyone is having a good weekend. For those into college football, I was mighty happy to see Georgia Tech upset UNC last night!

    I'm Getting Corncob Gurgle

    This will help but won’t completely eliminate the issue. I have three cobs with non-filtered bits, one of which is a short bit Dagner. They all gurgle so I DIY’ed them…. Now they only gurgle if I puff too quickly or don’t dry the tobacco adequately. In this regard the are very much like most...

    Savinelli 522 Bent Pot ?

    I suppose I could’ve increase the scope of the question to all relatively wide bent pots…. Most of my pipes have chambers widths between .75 to .85 inches.
