    Don' Buy the Regular Mouth 8 OZ Ball Mason Jars

    Hi, I needed only a couple of 8oz mason jars. I've always loved Ball, but no longer come with the wide mouth. It's a different company now. I just needed them for 2 for two oz blends. Yes, they will fit 2 oz. when you compress them. My fingers; however; reach just past halfway, so it is...

    Which Shipping Options from Smoking Pipes?

    Hi, I'm thinking of ordering a couple of pipes from SP. It's a relatively expensive order, for me, at about $250. They are offering free shipping with UPS Surepost. The closect options are USPS Ground Advantage and USPS Priority. Both for only a couple of dollars. I just saw 2nd day air...

    Savinelli 6mm Charcoal in Corn Cob

    Well, I have used 6mm Balsa filters in my Corn Cob. I decided to give their charcoal filters a try. No go, they won't fit in a CC. They are the same length, just a slightly wider circumference. Now Im going to have to order a Savinelli pipe to go with them. 😆

    Balsa 6mm Filter After Half a CC Bowl

    I was finally able to try out my MM Doc Cob with the Savinelli Balsa Filter. I loaded the Cob with half a bowl of Lane Limited Buttered Rum. It was pretty windy, so lots of relights in the 35 minutes. I smoked it just above the shank. There was still a bit of tobacco left, but I was being...

    Next Purchase, a Savinelli Unica?

    Hi, the Savinelli is a mid size, Group 4, 6mm limited production Egg style. I contacted Savinelli in Italy and they said their 6mm pipes will take both the Balsa and Savinelli's charcoal filters. I like that. Does anyone have any experiences or opinions? There is very little information on...

    My new MM Corn Cob Gap.

    Hey guys, I just received two Doc Cobs from MM. I just noticed that one has a slight gap where the spoon shank meets the bowl. I contacted MM and they were going to send me return shipping label. That's a pain if I can just fill it up with Elmers Wood Filler. Is this a good idea or would...

    My P&C Order is Finally Here

    Well, it took 5 business days, USPS Priority, but it finally came. The P&C after sale website order status is a nightmare though.

    My MM Doc Cobs Have Arrived!

    Well, I ordered them after hours on Wednesday and they arrived today. They look really nice and rustic. Very, very light. The construction appears well done for a cob. Im awaiting a tobacco order from P&C, my bad, which probably won't be here for a few more days. I did notice the draw with...

    Everclear 190, Finally in NY

    Hi, Since 2014, I've been using Bicardi 151 as my routine cleaner. Well, I finally ran out and it's no longer available. I was planning on getting 99% isopropyl alchohol, but always heard great things about Everclear. I recently ready that NY approved high proof spirits, over 150 proof...

    The Doc Cob From Missori Meerschaum?

    Hi, I've been thinking of trying this new CC from MM. It allows for a 6mm filter, but I would only be using Vauens Charcoal 6mm filters. My first pipe was Country Gentleman with paper filters. It always allowed for a bad taste in my mouth when smoking aros. I only smoke aros. Do any of you...

    Brebbia Italia with Built in Wind Cap?

    Hi, It's been a long time since I've posted here. Glad to be back. I came across this unusual pipe from Brebbia on Al Pascia's site. It has a retractable wind cap. I've never seen this before and find it to be a very interesting concept. It's also 9mm filtered, a must for me. Does anyone...

    English Blends More Expensive Than Aros?

    Hi, I have noticed that some tobacco manufacturers charge more for their English blend than their aromatics. Is the quality of the tobacco in English blends superior? Thanks

    An Incredible Ser Jacopo

    Hi, I found this very special Ser Jacopo Historica 2020 Pulchra Smooth Bent Apple Sitter with Silver (19). It's a 9mm pipe, which all my pipes now are. A very difficult pipe to find anywhere and I love SJ, but I'm struggling with the price $656, MSRP $820. Just thought I'd share. Damn you SP...

    Comoy's/Bruyere St. Claude Rare 1920's Unsmoked Ornate Carved Cutty

    Hi, saw this pipe and fell in love. I'm not really that familiar with Claudes, except being French made. Comoys, I thought were English made. This pipe has some nice, intricate carvings and a brass band. Looks like new to me after 100 years. Its 9.25" long and 45 grams. Question, is...

    Pipe Smoking While Driving a Convertible?

    EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9) Hi, I'm thinking of buying a convertible this summer. I've never smoked in my car, since I only like smoking in the out and open. I'm planning on buying a BWW 2 series convertible, if the price is right. Has anyone else smoked with the top...
