    @Dshift your Huber Celebration pipes are very cool, if you run across a 309, 307, 4S, or 9S Huber anniversary pipe please let me know. They are one of my favorite shops.

    “The Rake” On YouTube: Recent Tour Of The Dunhill White Spot Factory in London

    I enjoy his channel quite a bit, as a certified SXS shotgun nut I really enjoyed his episode on James Purdy & Sons.

    In Need of Reaming Advice

    Certainly a pipenet in the hands of a careful and thoughtful “hobbyist” is a perfectly fine tool capable of reaming a pipe. I think part of the problem is that the Pipenet is not longer made and the lookalikes on the market are poorly made butchers tools. The new ones are dreadfully dull and...

    The One Peterson Pipe I Wouldn't Recommend Buying.

    There were two Sherlock System pipes made in 1990, both featured AB system stems. The “Original” & the “Baskerville” both are system version of then already existing SH shapes. Both are very scarce today and bring decent money on the secondary market. Personally I think the Baskerville...

    Lighter for airplane travel

    I fly monthly/weekly. The only lighters you can’t take on a plane nowadays is a torch. I fly with my zippo pipe lighter everywhere I go in my pocket and it’s never had to be dry. They occasionally act like it’s a “torch” I politely correct them and ask if they can check with their supervisor...

    In Need of Reaming Advice

    The vast majority of chambers are parabolic, yet there are very few parabolic reamers. Most off the self reamers are capable of doing more harm than good. In my opinion the pipenet style reamers are the absolute worst. I use three different reams for different applications and stages of...

    Wellington Pipe

    I’ve owned several WDC system pipes including many Wellington. They tend to be decent smokers. I’ve sold most of my WDC systems to make room for more Pete’s but I’ve kept one. A large system just like yours that I made new acrylic P-Lip stem for as I wasn’t overly fond of the long WDC stem.

    Has Anyone Tried Putting Tobacco on a Traeger?

    Curing whole leaf with smoke is nothing new, it’s how Latakia and many flue cured varieties are done. But I’m not sure how much you stand to gain by smoking already cured leaf. You definitely don’t want to contaminate your leaf with any animal proteins in the process.

    Is There Such a Thing as Pipe Tobacco Sommelier

    I find the shale radon notes to be wholly inferior to the heady piquant that highly mineralized groundwater radon of the planes produces. 😂

    Honestly stingers and mortises are always nice to have around as well. Really any reusable KW parts are handy.

    Underberg

    🎶I think I’ll drink a fifth of Underberg and try to write a sad song. Tell me baby why you been gone so long. 🎶 Jessie Colter/Tony Rice/Elevenhundered Springs. I’m pretty sure that’s how they originally wrote it. Anyone? 😂
