    Clay for a Day…

    What kind of tobacco are they smoking here? In briar slow contests it’s usually a flake, three grams of flake. The rub it out.

    Clay for a Day…

    If you think of putting fire to telephone book. That’s almost impossible. If you rip of the pages and wrinkle them it’s easier. Also in tobacco fibres, there has to be certain space between the fibres for oxygen flow in between. And glowing ember has to keep in touch to the next layer.

    Clay for a Day…

    Yes, also I found the twist hard to lighten, but I think it’s even harder when you stack the coins in your pipe. Rub the coins out even further, as fine as you can. Or maybe cube the coins. Drying out is also a good thing. Experiment and exercise with different techniques. Maybe pack a little...

    Sad to hear that you forget about your own cares since you got married and having kids. But it’s your decision, so no one to blame.

    An Aromatic Mixer?

    Rum and Maple blend 53 is now produced by Mc Baren. It might be better than before, I didn’t like the Planta version. I had some 45 years ago and i remembered it as a remarkable good tobacco.

    How Come We Don't See Anyone Joining From Algeria?

    No, this site doesn’t translate anything. My English would have been better. And Google is only one engine of several. And it uses country specific algorithms if you choose. And no, not every browser translates automatically, even my safari browser, if people over there have an internet access...

    In Praise of Small Chambered Pipes

    I am not the most contemplating guy, so I use the smaller pipes the most. Sometimes I smoke one mostly all day long getting refilled, after cooling down and cleaning. E.g. that MM Huckleberry Finn that is hanging in the corner of my mouth right now. It’s good for a half hour smoke. Most of the...

    Clay for a Day…

    This time one I got from a private eBay seller. He sold his father pipes of the 50s and 60s and earlier. It’s a DeKroon Schoten, a Belgium pipemaker. It’s closed it’s factory down long time ago.
