    Pipe Maker Brad Pohlmann on Radio Show of June 4, 2024

    Always a joy to hear Brad Pohlmann speak. Great name, great guy, great carver. It really is incredible even after decades carving pipes he still finds new approaches or techniques or ways of looking at pipe making. His pipes truly are beautiful. One of my bucket list pipes for sure.

    My favorite Peterson, an 87 sandblasted spigot with horn stem.

    What happened in Vegas ... ???

    I’m in Vegas and hadn’t heard of this.

    Parks Turner on Radio Show of May 28, 2024

    We should have a special small batch blend to commemorate Jeremy Reeves shaving his beard. I also felt like an older soul which I think lended a hand in me being drawn to pipes. It was really cool to hear Parker knew what he wanted to be for a long time and pursued it and now he’s beginning...

    Donovan Broadway on Radio Show of May 21, 2024

    Great interview! Love hearing what the younger crowd’s take is on the hobby. Can’t go wrong with a Nate King pipe! Now I’m interested in researching those smaller more elegant pipes from the 50s and 60s. Music was a pleasant surprise, liked it a lot.

    How Much is Too Much?

    The most I’ve ever had was probably six pipes in a day and that was at a pipe show. Typically I have one bowl Mon-Fri and then Sat-Sun I’ll have three bowls each day.

    Show Us Your Ryan Alden Pipes!

    This is my collection of Alden pipes. Does anyone know if Ryan is still carving? Haven’t seen many of his pipes pop up on SP lately

    The Official 2024 NHL Playoff Thread

    That was ridiculous not calling that goal back. Clearly the Bennett cross check is what sent Coyle into Swayman and prevented Swayman from having a chance at making a save. Do I think Boston would have won that game, no, but you gotta get the call right when it’s that obvious. The rule states...

    Show Us Your Dr Bob Pipes

    I met Dr Bob and his pipes back at the 2013 then West Coast Pipe Show in Las Vegas. His rustication caught my eye and made me stop at his table for a closer look. The last picture above is the one I ended up buying from him after a nice conversation. For those that don’t know, he is a former...

    Nathan "CrashTheGrey" Davis on Radio Show of May 7, 2024

    I’m with ya Brian, I get made fun of enough at home for free. Good to hear the tradition of Kaywoodie will continue on. The pipe world has a great ability to honor and respect the history while forging on to the future.

    Walt Cannoy Suedeblast

    I’m not so sure and I know some carvers are very hush hush (too shy shy hush hush eye to eye) about what blasting medium they use. I want to say someone mentioned thinking or hearing he was using fine glass as a blasting medium and then changing the PSI to a certain level to get this finish.

    Walt Cannoy Suedeblast

    From the moment I first saw a picture of Walt Cannoy’s suedeblast it was my mission to acquire one for my American carvers collection. The intricate swirls it creates are mesmerizing. There’s so much detail in this specific blast. It also feels nice in the hand when holding the pipe. I...

    The Official 2024 NHL Playoff Thread

    Poor Leafs fans. Bruins up 3-1 heading back to Boston. If Matthews is out again Toronto may just exit the postseason.

    Peretti-Peterson Collab Pipes

    The other three arrived! The fit and finish on the 338 I received is considerably better than the one the website depicted. They look great in my Peterson four pipe travel bag. Overall I’m very pleased with them. Glad to add this small collection to my overall Peterson collection.
