    Candidate for Banding?

    Hmmm, ok, well if that's what it is then I apologize, but still believe that it's repairable by a kitchen table guy.

    So you're trying to prove your point by showing a different pipe? Is the OP's pipe what you're showing? If not then your argument is a strawman. Good luck with that.

    LOL There's nothing concave nor convex about this. It's symmetrically round. Well, technically it's all convex. It's round.

    Candidate for Banding?

    That is NOT a straightforward banding. The pipe the OP is showing has a symmetrically round shank, which can easily be banded, quite well, by anyone with rudimentary skills. The band will simply be a few thousandths proud, which will not look wrong. Just look at the bands on Merchant Service...

    Candidate for Banding?

    Honestly it's not really that difficult, you just have to dive in. I banded a Savinelli not too long ago and it came out great. You just have to measure very carefully. Then go to VT Freehand and find a band that matches your measurement. Because there is a +/- tolerance to the band sizes you'll...

    How was it? I don't know why, but I developed a weird bias towards Camacho when they changed their branding; I realize that's stupid.

    2100% Increase On Pipe Tobacco Date?

    It's impossible to explain why, without getting political, but as of right now it doesn't look like the reconciliation bill is going to pass. The deal that was in place to pass it has been ripped up.

    Best Bulk VaPer Flakes

    Stokkebye LBF & LNF are great, Comoy's Cask #4 & #7 are kind of variations of the same thing, there's also 4th Generation Evening Flake, but I've never tried it so... G&H Louisiana Perique flake is delicious, but it's kind of it's own thing and not a typical VaPer. Sam Gawith St James Flake is...

    How was it? Are they worth picking up a few?

    What Cigar are You Smoking?

    Ugh, I've thought about picking up one of those but I wasn't sure that they actually worked. Although I suppose even if it works half the time it would be a good thing to have. Seems like I should just grab one.
