    Is This Tin 29 Years?

    I was gifted a tin today and noticed the sticker on the back. It's HU Flanagan.

    Another Meer Coloring Tip/Method

    That's the thing..it's not a pipe that I smoke anymore..it was just an experiment..I would not do that to my Tekin. I plan on putting 40 years of actual smoking through it before cancer or the government get me. The pipes in the images of the OP were garbage just wanted to gauge the results. I...

    Another Meer Coloring Tip/Method

    I'm going to have to make a before and after picture of 30+ days. My intended point has been entirely misconstrued.

    One would have thought that there's a textbook on pipe smoking by McGraw-Hill

    Another Meer Coloring Tip/Method

    So just for the record. the pipe I'm trying this on likely will not color by smoking due to the way I fixed it after it broke. Also, I got some nasty JB weld on it by mistake and the smoke is actually drowning out those colors. I think Beauty is subjective, and I'm getting closer to that with...

    Elizabethan Mixture

    I'm enjoying the Elizabethan post-home blending. A little Latakia goes a long way. I will have to look into those sutliff blends. Malt vinegar on chips/fries/fritrs is soooo sooo good

    Another Meer Coloring Tip/Method

    Cognitive dysfunction. Such as: "If my meerschaum pipe is colored, my wife will love me." "If my meerschaum pipe is colored, life will be joyful." "If my meerschaum pipe is colored, I will not regret my past mistakes." "If my meerschaum pipe is colored, I can go to sleep at night." The...

    Another Meer Coloring Tip/Method

    I get what you're saying, but I'd think the majority is unaware, since coloring bowls are a thing, and the majority of information on the Internet on the subject says "just smoke it".

    Another Meer Coloring Tip/Method

    might have smoked a max of 5 bowls after the first pic but then I retired this pipe. It's not pretty and has a metal rod supporting the air way. So smoke does not enter the meer through the airway. Figured I'd try this experiment for that reason

    Another Meer Coloring Tip/Method

    Edited title after significant feedback. 3/14 It works. I'm disappointed that it was this easy, but it works. I feel like the meerschaum mafia is on their way to my house now that I'm disclosing this. Put the meer in a glass jar. Smoke another pipe. Blow smoke into the jar, seal the lid...

    Elizabethan Mixture

    It's underwhelming. Where's the perique? I did not finish the tin I purchased without re-blending it myself. I'm just here to say it's a fine entry-level Virginia blend. Maybe the simplicity is something to be sought after. I would recommend it as a solid tobacco blend, but it is not the...

    Sutliff Crème Brûlée

    I do not recommend this blend. Some say it tastes like nothing. I think it tastes like burning sugar, which is similar to its namesake. The mechanics of this blend are impossible. I've seen guys dry it out on a cookie tin with paper towel for however long. Who wants to do that? Not this...

    Peterson My Mixture 965

    My thoughts on EMP, Nightcap, and MM 965 as they relate to one another: These are all solid blends. Nightcap is one of my favorite blends. I found 965 to be the sweetest of the three, however I have not smoked EMP in quite some time since I favor latakia in the evenings. EMP is the best...

    Cracked My Paykoc

    it looks like a really bad attempt at rustication. The band is sweet thought it doesn't have any stampage on it like "925" or anything like that. I don't doubt that it's silver. Either way it doesn't really matter to me. If I were to post a picture of the new pipe's shank, we'd all have a...

    Pipe Maker from Oklahoma

    If you make an Osage pipe you gotta post pictures. I feel like locust would make a beautiful pipe also if it wasn't so twisted

    Escudo Alternative

    I just got into vaper in the form of luxury navy flake. I have Elizabethan and escudo on their way to my house so we'll see who's best.

    Cracked My Paykoc

    the replacement smokes great. The old pipe has been mended with a steel rod (3mm OD 2mm ID) and heat shrink tubing. No issues so far nor any foreseeable problems. Cheers all.
