Online Groups (besides this prestigious one)
I admit that I'm not real active on Facebook. Between keeping up with the All Things Meerschaum Group on Smoker's Forum and this place, a lot of my time is taken up. Since Kevin encouraged me to write some articles, this has been another time trap. That leaves little time for much else...- fred

How much tobacco do you buy?
Over the past few years, I've ordered frequently in order to feed the cellar..., which is currently up to 99.4 kilos. Lately, I've cut back on ordering blends but still will pick up a new issue, just out of curiosity.- fred

Clean up for the Vulcanite, Acrylic, Ebonite, Bakelite and Amberoid bits on my Pipes is done with a shank brush, Everclear and Pipe cleaners. I don't have a buffer, but a good bit polish will produce excellent results. For the light colored bits that show a smoke stain in the bit's draft...- fred

Pipemen and Integrity
Over the years, I've sent my Meerschaums to Floyd Norwood for repair. His work is high quality, fast turnaround and very reasonably priced. I send him the Pipe(s) and he returns them with the repairs accomplished, usually with a 7 day turnaround, and the bill is in the package with the...- fred

Thanks guys. The bit is a two piece acrylic military mount that uses a derlin push/pull connector. Amber runs $100 per inch and is difficult to maintain. I know that it is highly prized, but for me it is uncomfortable and no one I know will repair it. -

I avoid using them, preferring to dig the ash out with a Pipe tool. Pipe repair guys love it when you snap the tenon of the bit off in the shank.- fred
