    Dipping

    I have successfully given up dipping in favor of pipe and cigar smoking. For me it was a matter of using nicotine gum to first transition away from dip and then cutting back on the gum until I could go a whole day without nicotine. After breaking the nearly constant need for a supply of nicotine...

    How Did You Get Started?

    I have always had a fascination with pipe smoking due in part to my love of LOTRs books. Once in my twenties a friend of mine bought me a corncob pipe as a gag gift. I promptly went down to my local tobacconist and purchased some tobacco, probably lane 1-Q and tried a bowl; however, this was...

    I'm Back. Not That Anyone Gives A...

    Welcome back. I left a chair for you at the institution and was wondering why it was always empty.

    Pipe Rotation

    I fully understand your desire to know the answer to this question; however, it is such a subjective question and there is no hard and fast rule. The answer depends on your personal preference for example, do you mind smoking more than one bowl in a pipe per day. Having said that, the general...

    Muttnchop Piper from YouTube on Radio Show of Oct 3, 2017

    This was a great episode. I have really enjoyed Mutton Chop's videos.

    Escudo

    Peter Stokkebye's Luxury Bulls Eye flake is similar/in the same general vane as Escudo and can only be purchased in bulk. I find PSLBF to be a tad sweeter and enjoy it best when the center bit of cavendish has been rubbed out so that it mixes well with the rest of the tobacco. I would heartily...

    I am excited to be a part of this this year. Also, merry Christmas and happy New Year (I thought I would just get that out there before the big box stores.)

    My First Pipe Kit

    Nicely done. I know that the shape you ended up with is nothing traditional; however, there is just something about it that I like. Oldmansmoking, I also like the look of your pipe.

    Some Daughters and Ryan on the Way

    I have been greatly enjoying my D&R blends. Picayune I find to be very tasty and am now considering adding some more tobaccos that have oriental varietals in them. This is a strong tobacco, which I enjoy best if I have something to drink otherwise I get hiccups. I am also enjoying the Rimboche...

    One Cob for One Year

    The way the pipe looks after one week it looks like she will last more than the full year. :puffy:

    Bulk-Headed off A Section In My Garage For Working

    Shikano, if you don't mind me asking, how did you attach the tarps to the ceiling? Would it be possible for you to share a few more pictures that show a few more technical details. I have recently set up a garage smoking area and your idea has the wheels turning in my own head. Also, is there...

    Joining Iowa Hawkeye Nation

    Those fans are amazing. I also saw the interview that the sideline reporter did with one of the young men who is currently in the hospital. It brought me joy to see how the small actions of others were having such a large impact on the moral of a patient fighting for his life. I also imagine...
