    Cheroot Ash for Pipe Mud?

    I haven’t tried cheroots myself. Unless you count backwoods cigars. Cigars burn to a finer ash than pipe tobacco was always the reason I knew of. Even after you pick out all the dottle you it’s a lot less ash. I tried it, cigar ash was better. I have heard charcoal ash is also good, but I...

    Screens

    Screens were not meant for Briar pipes, as proper packing will help prevent bits from going into your mouth. Like cutting a cigar you would puff on it a few times to get any loose bits out, then light up. Would you put a screen on the cap of your favorite cigar? It’s not screen hate, as screens...

    What is Your Worst Pipe Buying Mistake?

    A cheap pipe off fleabay when I first started buying things off there. I still have it, however it never gets used. Just a reminder to pay more attention to what I purchase. As I think it is wood but no idea the coating.

    Who Is the More Iconic MM Smoker, Popeye, or Douglas MacArthur?

    I personally think Popeye. He may of been the reason deep down somewhere inside that inspired me. Chester, IL has a statue of him in honor of his creator Elzie C. Segar. They have also made more since I moved away from the area that I didn’t know about. The statue has his pipe thankfully, and...

    On a Trip To Rammstein

    Following up on my original post. Mailed the porcelain pipes home along with the Stein everything made it except the Stein. It looked like Ace Ventura delivered it. Box was ripped open on the side. I had news papers and 3 layers of bubble wrap around it. Gonna have a lot of work trying to put...

    What Kind of Filler?

    I’ve used a dremel mounted in my vise. Jab the pipe on at the circle cutter. There is another way with nails epoxied together, and wood handle attached. It’s then used to rough up the surface. Good luck and looking forward to seeing it finished.

    Hi from Northern Illinois

    Welcome, from Georgia. I used to live in the Lombard, Villa Park areas when I was younger. Miss the snow something fierce. Nice calabash pipes, great smokers. My favorite is no longer made, Villiger 1888 Early Day. next I guess would be Sherlock Holmes from the baccy shop that use to be in town.

    Looking For A Movie

    I’ll be I think I found it. May of got it mixed up with some other movies but the beginning of it is this movie. It wasn’t lightning, some sort of electro balls that kill folks. The trailer if still funny.

    Looking For A Movie

    Thats not it either, nor is Lightning: Fire from the Sky. I think it was a SyFy made for TV movie. Those are harder to find. Took me forever to find the anime I saw when I was a kid.... called Lily C.A.T. I’ve seen some random movies that stick in my mind for years. The Phantasm was another...

    Looking For A Movie

    Quite some time ago I saw a movie that I cannot recall the name of or any of the actors in it. From what I can recall. It starts in a video store or game store. There is some sort of pandemic/apocalypse going on that has some sort of lightning that strikes killing whoever it hits. In order to...

    Stuck Stem

    Good to hear, I would polish up the metal tenon to make it easier to remove it later. Check the inside of the shank and remove any corrosion there also.
