    Pictures of my pipes

    Sterling Tobacco Samples...

    After becoming aware of Sterling a few months back, I've smoked a number of Jack's non-aromatics and found them pleasing. 1776 is excellent, as are Chairman of the Board and Country Store Natural, but the one I've put in the cellar is Richmond Blender's Choice.

    fixed a bad smoking pipe

    I know, unfortunately he espouses it about every other page or so. An otherwise fine book. I'm not a fan of doing it very often but in this case it was just the ticket. I agree. Working on opening up a Pipe's draft is something that gets done on as needed basis for me as well. Most Carvers...
