    Interest In a DIY Pipe Magizine?

    Yes, everyone should subscribe to this. I also miss getting the hard copies of The Pipe Smoker's Ephemeris and more recently Pipes & Tobacco Magazine.

    Pipe Spotting—Tucker Carlson on his new Twitter (X) Show

    Good eye. I noticed it before, too. It's one of those giant Ropp cherrywoods.

    Tony Bennett Dies aged 96 😔

    96 is a good run. Unrelated other than they're very old - Mel Brooks is still going at 97 and Kissinger recently turned 100.

    Sun Bear 2023 - Is This Happening?

    In Europe anyone can get it from the Danish Pipe Shop, but they won't ship to the US anymore. The last US special release was this April. No idea if/when we'll see it here again...

    THE Chicago Pipe Show — Battle of the Briar, Pt 1

    I might be in the minority, but I’d like to see them double the points for first and second submissions. Bring like an F1 pit crew element into the contest.

    Preview: New Barling Pipes without Filter

    You're right. Smoking Pipes doesn't show a top down photo and from the profile it looked like a big fake diamond. Looked at some on eBay that show top down perspective and yeah, it's a lion. Slightly less terrible than a fake diamond LOL

    Preview: New Barling Pipes without Filter

    Would be cool if they ditched the diamond and brought back the crossed logo on the stem.

    I went through a tin of 2022 very recently and I was really impressed. Just got 15 more. BnB Tobacco was one etailer who still had it in stock last week...not sure if they still do though...

    Who Are The Real Tobacco Snobs?

    Hey Steve, If selling out in 5 minutes every single week tells you anything, it's that you oughta be charging more.

    Cutty Madness. Match 8.

    #1. #2 looks like it was made with anything but love. Put that into your to-be-sold group, and my apologies to the carver if I know you.

    Cutty Madness. Match 7.

    #1. Close call. The shaping of #2 is more appropriate for a pipe calling itself a cutty shape. #1 has more refined finishing thoug, and I love the workmanship of the horn.

    #2, but not in love with either
