    My Favorite Tin/Jar Note

    Purely for tin note aroma, I'd have to say CAO Moon Trance. It has a delicious fruity aroma. Not bad for an aromatic. Decent taste and not too bitey. I smoke it when we have company and it always wins the crowd.

    The Wellington

    Yes, my fast talking 3 name lawyer is suing you for every oz. of Penzance you own pal. I'm not sure the era of that Wellington but I imagine it's very old. I've never seen one with so many stampings. Stem, band, left, right, and bottom stampings.

    What is With Online Pipe Reviews?

    I second that Watson. There are a few good YouTubers but most are unwatchable.

    The GBD Collectors Thread

    Speaking of the newer GBD's, not long ago Dutch posted a stock photo of a new 9438 with an amber swirl stem and brass rhondelle. It looked very nice. Has anyone bought a new GBD recently, and how is the quality? The only new GBD's I've seen for sale is the PUB model on P&C. That model just...

    A Cautionary Tale - Broken Pipe, Ill-Used Widow, Piper of Ill Repute

    Stem Resto: Preserving Sharp Lines

    I thought I'd share this handy trick with the D.I.Y guys. Wet sanding is a double edged sword. It sure makes those crusty old stems shiny again, but it can also soften the crisp lines of the original design. I made some miniature sanding sticks from craft sticks (popsicle sticks) and sand paper...
