    Hockey Anyone?

    I'm a Flyers fan but living in Portland now makes that hard. They don't play the games and i'm not paying for NHL game center once again as it SUCKED last time i paid a ton of money and the feeds looked like crap. Hopefully i'll get my fix via reading and possibly some audio feeds of the games...

    Is it Okay to Partially Fill My Pipe?

    Lots of good advice in here. The only thing I would add is to try and smoke a whole bowl when you can as often times the flavor and experience changes throughout the bowl. Many tobaccos smoke and taste differently during one part of the bowl than the other. Different burn temperatures, air...

    Pipesandcigar.com Shipping Time/E-mail

    Think about it. They were probably closed when you made your order and they most likely don't ship on the weekend. Patience is the key with all things pipes.

    English Blends in a Corn Cob?

    My love of cobs is well documented. I have briar pipes set aside for English blends but I'm starting to reach for my cobs these days when I want some black house or FMC.

    His pipes are so beautiful. I wish I got back into pipes BEFORE I quit my job instead of after!

    Micro Mesh

    This thread reminded me that I had some micro mesh left over from a headlight restore kit. Just worked over an old stem that was starting to oxidize, buffed it up with obsidian oil and it looks amazing! So much disgusting yellow brown came out of the stem while sanding.

    Tobacco Packages Keep Getting Lost in the Post!

    Haha yeah I guard my porch like a hawk waiting for the mailman every day! Also this was not two packages in a row but more like 2 out of 5 in the past few months. I know poop happens it's just a bummer. Especially when I know someone sent something out of the kindness of their heart and packed...

    Tobacco Packages Keep Getting Lost in the Post!

    True. That is a lesson learned when buying. When it's available. But I shan't force it upon the brothers of the briar when we do trades. Especially since most of us are broke! It's just more frustrating wondering where these are ending up.

    Tobacco Packages Keep Getting Lost in the Post!

    Arghhhhh so frustrating! First a package from p&c and now a package from lazybugger. I'm starting to think someone at my local post office likes pipes and is stealing them! Big props to lazybugger on offering me a replacement but I've declined as I don't want to waste anymore of his tobacco.
