    A Life Changing Decision of Sorts

    Harris, let us know how this works out. It sounds like a good idea to me. I am starting to dedicate most of my pipes to Va/Vapers and English Blends and putting the English blend and Va pipes in separate racks. Have you thought of keeping track that way?

    Ebay Dealers and On Line Dealers of Pristine Pipes

    I bought a pipe from Chance Whittamore at great estate pipes that couldn't be more pristine. I bought a pipe from Jason Bard at Bards Vintage Briar that was very nicely refurbished. Has anybody else had any experience with pipes from him?

    Twenty One Years Ago This Would Have Been Impossible

    I love how quickly you can get information on anything on the internet. My grandsons, having grown up with the devices, don't have the same perspective on modern day electronics that people of my generation do. On the other hand, there's my Luddite brother that takes great pride in proclaiming...

    Matters of Cake and Ghosting

    I've never been concerned with building a cake fast. I think it should be allowed to develop slowly over time. A lot of people use Burley to start a cake, but I prefer using whatever I will smoke in the pipe, whether it's Burley, English blends or Virginias. I also see no need for initially...

    Bang for Your Buck

    I wonder if anybody else ever did what I am doing? At any rate, it fits in with this discussion. I wondered how many smokes I actually get out of a tin, so I started keeping a record of the pipes smoked, weight of the tobacco and duration of the smoke. I switched to a more accurate scale last...

    San Antonio Pipe Maker

    I don't know of any offhand. Other forum members may be able to help you with specific names, but I have a few suggestions that may help. 1. Check the pipemaker forums online. They exchange quite a bit of information and even if they are not in your area, somebody there may offer to give you...

    Second Briar Suggestions

    I have 5 Savinellis and they all are good smokers. I only know of Stanwells by the reputation they have here on the forum, but I would suggest either brand in a new pipe. New Petersons have a reputation for quality problems and being slow to break in. The older GBD's are good smoking pipes and...

    Smoking Va/Per and English in the Same Pipe?

    Thanks for the input, guys. The pipes in question have always been smoked with the the original Balkan Sobranie, some Dunhill blends and a few other English blends, never with aromatics or heavily cased and flavored blends, so I figured it would just take some time to change them over after a...

    Tasting the Tobacco

    I think the two most important things new smokers have to learn is how to pack a pipe and to slow down. I would put it this way for new smokers; pipe smoking is like a walkathon, not a sprint. It seems to me that cigar smokers have an easier time adjusting to the slower tempo of pipe smoking...
