    You misunderstood, of course he is an excellent expert, he proved it in many of his how to videos, but in this thread he is not of real guidance. As I said the tone makes the music. As skilful he might be, I wouldn’t choose that man as a teacher.

    Sorry I can’t see any guidance of an experienced craftsman. He’s shouting out dogmas. It’s the way he does his lectures on the op that aren’t constructive at all. Actually I thought of Robert Franks film Pull my Daisy Ginsbergs poetry included.

    Ah man, you’re a boar. Yes we all have heard you calling out loud once at the beginning of the thread, that it’s not a billiard, and you’re right it isn’t.

    What are You Reading Now?

    Reading Philip Roth‘s Satire on Nixon from the 1970s. Seems nothing has changed in the last 50 years. My lady read that in school in back in the 1970s

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Smoking Salty Dogs in the MM 150 Anniversary Corncob with my new Cumberland stem, self made from an ebonite rod, after I broke the cheap plastic tenon in the usual cleaning routine. What about Salty Dogs? Is it running out of production?

    Cracked Bowl, Worth Trying to Fix?

    I wouldn’t buy it, for that price are still much pipes to buy without a crack, But if you’ve fallen in love with that pipe, my opinion means nothing. Buy it smoke it, cracked bowls aren’t easy to repair.

    All I can read here is regulations about advertising tobacco products. But pipes aren’t tobacco products. There is a ton of advertisements for pipes especially on this forum.
