Problem with G.L. Pease Blends
This is kind of a cop-out, but it's true: sensory experience is a very psychological thing. Now that you expect these blends to bug you, they are all the more likely to do so. I think you're on the right track to set them aside for a while. Those are good blends, so they're worth giving...- lyle

Easy fix for traveling
I do the same. I don't own any guns, but the case was cheap and very handy. A bonus tip: if the foam is not fixed to the shell, you can tuck lighters, pipe cleaners, and other less delicate things "behind" the foam. It makes room for more pipes.- lyle

Air Pocket Method.....A Testamonial
I too use this method, especially in pipes that smoke wet at the bottom and/or have a conical chamber. It's amazing how tight you can pack a bowl and still get an easy draw. Fred's a smart, nice guy, and his book is a lot of fun to read.- lyle

"how does it smoke? I have seen a few pass through the bay and even though I usually get outbid I am still interested in his work." I've only got 10-20 bowls in it so far, all Escudo, but it's already smoking great. It's light for its size (has a bamboo shank), and feels good in the hand...- lyle
