Hunting Red VAs and McClelland Wannabes
I just received the 4oz of 515-RC1 today (haven't tried it before). I think I need to wait a week before trying it to allow for removing the sardine smell thoughts from my sinuses mind.- PipesRock

High-End Pipes - Do They Improve the Smoking Experience?
The bit/button, as has been mentioned. This is becoming more and more of a big deal for me. I'm considering paying to shrink and smooth the button on my 60.00 Rossi Lucca 8111. While not collectible, for a total investment under 150.00 it might just wind up high end to me.- PipesRock

Do You Keep Certain Pipes For Certain Types of Tobacco?
I haven't found the magic blend needing the one special pipe yet. I do use certain shapes with blend categories, but nothing scientific because of bowl size making blend types better etc...
