    corn cob pipes

    Someone said they bought the squirel feed cobs from walmart and were fashioning cobs out of them. Sounds like a good way to get material. For the stem pick up dowel rod from your local lumber company and drill it, you can shape it with sand paper and files if you have nothing else. Hope all goes...

    Fla. Mayor: Quit Smoking Or Get Fired, Even At Home

    I think it's BS. As I have said before Choosing to use tobacco is an informed decision made bey grown adults. It should not be anyone's business to make that decision for you. Personal liberty. I'm going to stop there. Happy puffin everyone.

    I doubt it Art, The flaw is right at the bend and rather deep. I'm just going to fill it and try to be happy with it. Maybe the fill will irritate me and I will attempt something different.

    I did two coats jonesing. I used a Q-tip and rubbed it on real fast then wiped after it sat for about a minute. Here is a picture of NUMBER 2 I whittled out today. It needs a big fill in it but I'm more than happy with the results.

    Pictures of my pipes

    Jonesing it was a kit from Pimo. Until I can replace my drill press I'll let them drill 'em for me. I shaped with a dremel and a file set I picked up at home depot. The shaping wasn't to bad, I spend about 4 hours with sand paper though. Here she is with a coat of stain. I need to find carnuaba...

    What got you started on pipes?

    I took up the pipe to get off cigarettes. A big monster was born. I thought I'd be able to save money by switching to the pipe, BOY was I wrong. I've made one pipe stand to date with more coming up. Carved my first pipe this morning with more to come. My current pipe collection is at 22. Ok, I...
