Royal Crown Windsor
This was my final project for the weekend, a Royal Crown Windsor. I was lucky to get the pipe with the box and sock for under twenty bucks on "the bay". I've had it for a while but lacked the courage to take on the refurb project thinking I might do more harm than good. But after a few months of... -
Glad I was outbid
I had never heard of Mixture 79 so I looked it up on tobaccoreviews.com. First review: "If you were ever curious enough to wonder what it would be like to smoke a urinal cake, here you go." Ha ha! -

Glad I was outbid
I wasn't so lucky to be outbid on this: It's coming with two other pipes, so maybe the sting won't be so bad. -
Golden Duke Joins the Collection
It was a pleasure to bring the pipe back into use. It's a solid piece of old briar, light and well balanced in the mouth. I don't know how old it is, but I don't think it had ever been cleaned. I was going to post a picture of the mountain of cotton pads, swabs and pipe cleaners used on it but... -

What a Friday
Good Grief! Makes me count my blessings. I have to say, I've been a coward in respect to the over 50 exam. My wife thought she'd be an example for me and went first. Turns out they didn't sterilize the scope from the previous exam so she had to come back every three months for an HIV and...- tuold

I find that an open draw gives me more control with less effort. I can't think of any advantage in having a tight draw!- tuold

My collection of Dr Grabow pipes grows with this addition. Just got her cleaned up and ready today. Looks like new. -
Another Chunk Out of My Freedom
I've only got a year until retirement. If I had my way I'd be building my cabin in the wilderness of Montana and smoking my pipe while typing my manifesto. :lol: This is going to be the longest year of my life!- tuold

New To Me $5 Pipe And A Question
Redbeard, I think you did a good job cleaning off the rim. I had the same problem with the white one I posted earlier. I started (gingerly) with with a nail file, switched to a micromesh pad then spit on a cotton pad finishing with a white diamond buff. Now I'm afraid to smoke it because I don't... -
Today's Estate Projects
Exactly right! I bought the lot of three pipes for $15.00, including shipping. The third pipe is missing the stem but came in a nice case. Someday I'll take a shot at getting that one back in shape too. -

Today's Estate Projects
Having the day off today, I started work on a couple of pipes from ebay. This Dr Grabow Viscount came with a lot of three pipes. I really don't like the look of "White Briar" pipes and I never would have purchased it by itself. However, it is collectible I suppose, so it will go into the drawer... -
Another Chunk Out of My Freedom
We are self insured at the hospital where I work. Smokers are charged $50.00 a a month for the pleasure of doing something I choose to do, not at work, but in the privacy of my own home on my own time. The cigarette thing was out of control because staff would duck out of the hospital during...- tuold

Small Pipes
Smaller pipes definitely have a place in the rotation. Tobacco flavors seem more intense in the small bowls. Here are my three midgets, an unknown maker, a Kaywoodie Colt and an old Yello-Bole: -
Out of the Mouth of Babes . . .
