Its Finally Cooling Off!!
This Spring and Summer have been so hot here in upstate NY near the Canadian border. 90+ degrees with 60+% humidity. The last few days have been in the mid to upper 70s, and the humidity isn't an issue. I can finally just sit outside our little cabin in the woods and enjoy an evening smoke...- Sig

Anyone Interested In Some Practice Pipes?
Ive got way too many pipes sitting around. I will never do anything with them. If anyone in the lower 48 wants them, they are yours, I'll pay shipping. A couple didn't make it into the group picture, I'll show them separately. Most need a lot of help, some just need cleaned really good. I've...- Sig

Are Pipe Makers Looney?
I dont look often, but I occasionally check out Facebook. I've never made a post, dont have many friends, and comment rarely. Looking through some of the pipe groups, I see a LOT of people are now making pipes. Many have just started in the last few years, but they sell their pipes for... -
Show Your Pietenpauw.
In 2008-2009 I was really just getting into ebay pipe buying. I found this little pipe for $24 shipped. Its pretty small, not very pretty, but it is very well made. It has a Delrin stem, yep, Delrin. It doesn't shine very well, but it's as comfortable as Vulcanite, but doesn't oxidize like...- Sig

Any Clue Identifying This Pipe?
I got this very odd pipe years ago in a box lot from ebay. It's NEARLY unsmoked. It is very oddly shaped, but very well made, and is insanely light weight. I haven't worked on it or smoked it. Does anyone have an idea? It just says "Italy" on it. -
I Did It Again
Just browsing SP last week for some tobacco, and somehow I ended up on the Peterson pipe page again. Sooo, I thought I might as well get something. I know newer Petersons aren't what they used to be, but I like them. I bought a sandblasted Sherlock Holmes Watson, to go with the System XL315 I... -
I Got A New Pipe!
Nothing special but ive wanted a Peterson System pipe for awhile. Years ago I had several given to me, but like a dummy I traded and gave them all away. I really didn't see much difference between the Standard and the Deluxe...as far as I care about anyways.....so I went with this rusticated... -
Any Stanwell Experts Around Here?
I have this Stanwell pipe I got years ago in a trade. It was unsmoked. I've smoked it about 10x, but it's not for me. Doing research ive found nearly nothing about this pipe. As far as I can tell it's one of their Specialty lines called "Facet". I believe its shape 194, has a brass band and made... -
Spring Is Here And The Smell Is In The Air......Onion's.
Every Spring about this time millions of Ramps pop up on our property. They sell for $6/lb at our local grocery store. They just rot away here. A few friends grab a few and my wife and I eat a few. We also get tons of chives.....and skunk cabbage. :) Pretty much every bit of green in these...- Sig

Wasting Money On Tobacco!!
Last week someone was asking about good flake tobaccos to try. I suggested Watch City because they have a lot of flake/cake blends that ive really liked over the years. After posting the suggestion, I realized I didn't have a single leaf of WCC blends! So I immediately went to WCC website to...- Sig

The Ten Minute Stem Restore.
Vulcanite/Ebonite stems are my first choice. I like the feel of them and the looks. But, I can be a lazy SOB sometimes.....much of the time. Anyways, I have followed all the advice over the years with varying success......Oxyclean, Magic Eraser, Barkeepers Friend, Flitz...... Then about 10...- Sig

Coincidence?
The other day someone posted about delayed gratification. During this conversation I brought up the weirdos that like to DG a cigar. I said I didn't really care for DGing a pipe, but cigars were FAR worse. Weeeeell, this brings us to yesterday. We had my wifes good friend and her husband staying...- Sig

Strange Pipe with No Name.
Years ago I got this pipe in an ebay lot. It was not in the pictures of usual ebay lots....Medico Kaywoodie, Algerian Briar, Dr Grabow.....that kind of stuff. I remember there were about 20 pipes of various quality and condition. I paid $25 for the lot because there was a Savenelli Alligator...
