Pipe Shop Time Today!
I've been trying to get a little time in the shop lately and always come up with a reason I can't. Well today a buddy and fellow pipe maker came over and we played. He drilled a few blocks, which he can finish at home. While he did that, I worked on a stem I've been making for one pipe and...- smokindawg

Your Cellar
One day I had a piping buddy visit and while showing him my cellar he made the mistake of saying "Wow" which upon my wife hearing him, she made the comment "That's how I feel too" I hushed him up really quickly. LOL- smokindawg

Thought I'd post up some pics of my cellar. There are a few items missing as I have a pound of the H&H Vintage cyrian in it's ceramic jar and another couple pounds in bags on my desk that I need to put in jars. In total I have over 150 tins from 2oz to 8oz and a few pound boxes and factory...- smokindawg

Flying with Pipes and Tobacco?
I also travel a lot and have traveled from lots of different airports. I always take my pipes, tobacco tamper (Bone one) and my Pipe Maggie lighter. (I always carry a back up bic too.) The lighter can be carried full but I always carry it in my pocket and put it in the bin. I've had to show...- smokindawg

Will no smoking in cars be next?
Same here Paul. I don't even smoke a pipe or cigar in the car if the wife or anyone else is with me...... out of courtesy. That and the wife says it's too strong in the car. She doesn't show me the same courtesy though with her cig smoking. I also don't smoke in others homes, even when they...- smokindawg

If not mistaken, I think that a law against smoking with minors in the car in Arkansas is also on the books now.- smokindawg

Ebay Listing Makes Me Mad!

Used pipe buying tips (wanted)
No. 1 in my book of pipe buying rules. If your not used to making purchases of used pipes. Buy from a reputable seller. Check feedbacks if purchasing from Ebay and look thru all you can. I never purchase from anyone with less than about 97% feedback unless their bad feedback is very old with...- smokindawg

SD's Popeye Rusticated Poker Pipe Carve
Nice job SD, Your coming along with your shaping and your rustication looks great. Only thing I see that you need to really work on, which can be difficult is your stem to shank junction, but once you get that figured out, you'll be making some nice looking smokers. Keep up the good work.- smokindawg

Upgrade to iOS5
The wife and I just took advantage of the free Iphone 3GS phones. Never had a smart phone and was wary of the 2 gig data plan. But so far, so good. I'm enjoying the phone much better than my old Eternity. I did the upgrade while on the road working. I did this because I have dial up at home and...- smokindawg

Heavy Metal (The Kind You Make Pipes With)
I have done a lot of reading on this lathe (Something I like too do on any tools I have) to see what I could do to make it better. I use it for both pipe making and metal work so like to make it all the machine it can be. Here is a link to a page for some mods you can do to make the lathe a...- smokindawg

Heavy Metal (The Kind You Make Pipes With)
Good luck to you Lonestar. I have that lathe too and it's what I use to make my pipes. Mine came with the factory stand with storage in it, a nice QCTP, both a 3 and 4 jaw chuck a box full of cutters. Makes it nice for metal working, but still needs other things for pipemaking. I make a lot of...- smokindawg

I've made a huge mistake (maybe).
Plastic is good for short term storage, but if your keeping it more than a couple weeks, I'd go with mason jars. No plastic bag is completely air tight and tobacco will dry out in them. I've got most my bulks in jars and even after 5-6 years, other than the good parts of aging, the baccy is as...- smokindawg
