    Disposable Pipe Lighter

    Kane: I favor the Commander. It holds the fluid much longer than the Zippo.

    +1 Wallace I go by there every few years and it is always treat..I plan to repeat the trip in May or June. HPD: I have tried 7 of his blends. Only disliked 2. As always YMMV. PM me and I will tell you which and why. His blends are unique in my opinion. They burn differently than any other...

    If there is a tobacco God, I am definitely blessed this weekend.

    Wow! Those tins look like they are painted, like before sticker labels. When you finish the contents, if you do not want them, let me know. Especially the EMP tin. I am sorry that I tossed mine in the last move. :crying: :puffpipe:

    Aromatic with no flavor and almost no room note

    +1 Spencer. Brudertuck: You are on a trial & error journey. Get small amounts of Tobacco that sound good until you start to find the types and specific blends that you like. 8 oz is a lot but do not toss it. Jar it ,Mason type, and it may be OK or useful for blending later. Enjoy the journey!

    House of Calabash, Still In Business?

    The phones have been having problems for a while. I would try ordering by the web site. https://squareup.com/market/house-of-calabash-2 I have been able to contact them on Facebook also. I do want to see them keep in business. They have unique tobaccos that I like.

    Thunderbird Zippo pipe insert annoyance - any member use it without problem?

    I am a light user. My insert is still working after 2 years. It looks like it has a date stamp from 2007. Menuhin: Is your unused insert dated....Hopefully a old date. Have you tried cleaning the nozzle? Are you draining the tank before refilling? good Luck

    Barling Referb and Need a Little Help

    Klause and Hunter. Thanks for the suggestions. The liquid paper worked partially. It looks a lot better. I forgot to say that the shank gunk was removed with a drill bit. And, the shank and stem were scrubbed with alcohol using shank brush and pipe cleaners. The pipe was well loved but the...

    Barling Referb and Need a Little Help

    I have wanted to try a Pot type pipe and was interested in the Barling pipes. A post transition Pot/Prince came up last week on Fleabay. It was surprising how easily it cleaned up. But, how can I make the “BARLING cross” white again? Help anyone! The stem cleaned up nicely using the Magic...
