    Help Loading Pics Please

    Does anyone have suggestions for uploading pics from iphone to the forum? I used to use imgur. Easy peasy. Straight from my phone to imgur which had a forum upload setting. Well they decided that wasn't good enough and updated the site. It doesn't work with my phone anymore. I'm old and do not...

    BBB Centenary Pipes - Info Needed

    I agree with pitchfork. The stamped in pre- brass stem logo looks to be period correct. I've worked on a few pretty old BBB's and that's how they all looked. Great looking survivor. The nomenclature is outstanding. I call first dibs if you sell... :wink:

    Savinelli 320 PAD

    The 320 is a great burner. I'm up to 3 now and looking to get a military mount or Capri 320 next.

    How many pipes do you need?

    A one year rotation of 365 seems reasonable.

    You Might Have P.A.D if....

    Question of pipe repair ethics

    I think it's shady. I list all repairs made to a pipe if I sell them. Minus the basics. Light tooth chatter, stem deoxidizing, etc. If those pipes are re-sold, that's another story. If your seller is the repairman than the pipe mud was knowingly used to cover a crack and should've been disclosed.

    Grandson Got The Hero Award At NASA Space Camp

    How clean is clean enough on a Estate pipe.

    Matter of personal preference. Personally I like a seasoned estate briar. Kind of like an old iron skillet. Don't wash it. I get the stem squeaky clean but only a light ream and clean for the briar. ( unless it has an unworldly ghost)

    Reliable pipes?

    Chasing was spot on. Remove it with acetone. If you want an easy way to shine it up without a buffer, try Halcyon wax. Rub on, hand buff off. Easy peasy.
