    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    Lucky guy. How does it compare in your book vs. say the current oft standards like Peterson, Savs, and so on. Oh and what taxes? local I hope.

    What Tools May I Need to Restore a Decent Pipe Condition

    Not the most handy person but I can do some woodwork. Pathetically my hands lock when working with small objects- spine/cervical- u tell me as my docs cannot. Anyways- what may I need to restore a pipe that needs some work but not pointless? I have a Dremel that I am sure needs more toys to make...

    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    102 or 30 looks great to me thought I could do a "one" which would take less "splaining" to wifey as I am on disability these days with a bit of OCD as regards to buying to fast.

    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    Oh and hey- under $100 is where I need to be but should I splurge on those guys? They have some cool looking smokers. I can only go buy what folks say at this point. They are all handmade? I mean the "ones" look quite interesting. I have seen a handful of US pipe makers and I guess if I shall...

    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    Not at all. Amateur hour with me. Still learning but I am quick. Thanks and I am going to check it now. I need to increase my rotation which is basically nill beyond the 2 I think are decent (Sav, Rossi, else corns, and god knows what). And wow. Where does one start with those? The "ones"- r...

    Should I Bid On These And Please I Beg Dont Bid Against If I Should LOL?

    Thanks all. If I screw up there's tobacconist that does it but I guess that kills the deal as far as price. I've been looking at this other Savinelli but not touching the bid- people always add on when you up it. Savinelli- not a honey...

    Should I Bid On These And Please I Beg Dont Bid Against If I Should LOL?

    So wth do I know. I need more pipes simply put for rotation. IMHO. I have a high cadence and I really want to build on the 2 that are worth mentioning (yes I have corns and lord knows what else). So I get posting this puts me in a place where I can end up bidded against but I suspect this batch...

    ***What Are You Smoking? December 2019.***

    Care to tell me where to get that? I mean for that price. I am pipe poor and lately I feel poor but still need to grow what I have on hand. (Sav, Rossi, corns, lord knows what the other ones are I found I had from years past)

    Do You Keep Your Tobac Tins?

    I ask as I see people selling old - yes of course old, tins on Craigslist for $10 and such. I am guessing people that like ornaments buy 'em but seems silly. Hey- what do I know. Something is worth what someone is worth paying for it. Like antiques I guess. I got room somewhere in my mancave...

    Will I Hate The Tobaccos I Bought - Latakia Is In Them

    Any thoughts on "Pete's Beard"? Wasn't cheap and is unopened in a jar (pricey at my local tobacconist). I feel I should try them all but darn if I will hate it out of the gate. I bought what I bought based on reviews I looked at without knowing that Latakia is funky to some of us- well me...
