    In Search Of A Pipe Carrying Case......

    I have mine. I wear one at least 4 days a week, and make it a habit when I go out. I wish I could say the same for most others I see out and about. I wish I could say it is only a symptom of people in my generation, but that would be untrue. The general quality of dress of most people in this...

    In Search Of A Pipe Carrying Case......

    I would like to say it is only a symptom of people in my generation, but that would be untrue. The general quality of dress of most people in this day in age can best be described as pathetic. That goes from 30 somethings all the way up to guys that are 50 and think that sweatpants are an...

    In Search Of A Pipe Carrying Case......

    This is the best I have found so far for my needs. It will fit two 7.5 in. pipes, some cleaners, lighter, tamper and a small tobacco pouch. Must larger than this is out of my comfort zone. Mine is dark brown leather. 2in. x 9 in. x 5 in.

    In Search Of A Pipe Carrying Case......

    Yeah, problem is, most people don't even wear sport coats anymore. I bought a "pipe purse". I have used it 3 times. I can't bring myself to carrying a bag to tote around more shit than a woman has in her purse. It is amazing how much shit we need to carry just to smoke a pipe.

    These Advertisements

    I signed up for one ages ago. Once a month or so, coupons will show up in the mail. I have seen coupons for other products as well that I assume come from the parent company. I would not say flooded with junk mail though. I typically drop them at my pipe club meetings for the guys that enjoy...

    What Makes Dunhill RY Such A Nic Monster?

    I have come to really enjoy RY. I know others disagree, but to me it has a more Burley character than a VA. As far as the nic goes, I would not call it a monster, but suitable enough to satisfy the craving.

    The Perfect Plug Cutter

    That is some cool stuff. I can see how that would do damage to a plug... in a good way. Sure looks like it would make cutting Night Train a bit easier. Thanks for sharing, Gman.

    Holy pipe cases Batman. Now that's traveling in some serious style there. Prices are not bad either.

    OJK vs. Haunted Bookshop

    This mix might actually be able to use a bit more. Tough call. You can smell it in the jar, but not sure if I can taste it. A touch more might jack the whole thing up. Only one way to find out though.

    OJK vs. Haunted Bookshop

    Pitch, I mixed some C&D Cube with some unflavored Black Cav and Perique. Turned out pretty nice. Wrote the recipe down. Not sure it's a keeper yet, but not a bad little throw together concoction.

    I Want A Milder Sweet Tasting Tobacco

    Milder and sweeter than what? There are probably 3,247 blends that would fall in that category.

    Tobacco press ?

    I would imagine you could go as large as you want coffin, as long as you had enough clamps to provide equal pressure across the entire press. The upside of a 3-4 in piece of pipe is that you can probably get away with a single clamp.

    In Search Of A Pipe Carrying Case......

    That's a sharp case, Tar. I have looked at those myself, in a two pipe bag. Problem is, most of them can't handle pipes over 6 in.

    Cleaning a Briar Pipe with Pledge (Multi-Surface Cleaner), not lemon!

    I would say my only issue with it would be using it on the stem and then putting that in your kisser. I suspect that whatever is in Pledge is not meant for human consumption. Though it's minimal and may not cause any significant health risk, the taste might be enough to avoid the bite area of...

    So Long Guys

    With all of the good that comes from a forum, there is some bad. This is an example of the latter. We are unfortunately relegated to interacting through limited means. Posting, private messages and maybe a phone call if we have engaged enough with a member to reach that point. Honestly, it's one...

    Has Anyone Seen Nate (Iamn8) lately?

    Your previous comment said 2 to 3 days... Ok... maybe my math skills are wrong. The last time you messaged him, was on the 18th. And actually, looking at the whole list of your sent messages that you posted, your PM's from today are dated the 25th. Which means that your time zone is off or...
