    Finish Bubbling on Kaywoodie Supergrain 71

    🤔 I paid about $30 for this pipe originally.

    Finish Bubbling on Kaywoodie Supergrain 71

    I recently got my first Kaywoodie, a 71 (I believe) Supergrain with an Oval Shank. Estate pipe, possibly from late 60s (?). Smokes like an absolute dream, maybe better than a lot of my newer pipes. It's hot in my house, 78 at night - air conditioner ain't working. So I went out for a night...

    Plastered Dr. Grabow Viscount

    I recently attained this Rusticated Dr. Grabow Viscount, with a beeeeg chonk torn out of it. Originally I was intending to fill the offending section with briar dust and cyano acrylates. Then I removed the mouthpiece. It was stuck at first and I thought someone had glued it in. THEN it finally...

    Can Anyone Identify this Snifter Pipe Mark?

    I picked up this "unbranded" estate pipe. However, it clearly has a logo on the mouthpiece which has a push fit stinger. The pipe mark on the mouthpiece looks like a drinking glass 🧐 I think. I checked pipephil EU BUT didn't find any matching pipe marks.

    What's The Cure for Briar -and does it Make A Difference?

    Is this "rum maturing" possibly one of the things that influenced him? 🤷🏾‍♂️ Were they even "matured" in other spirits?

    What's The Cure for Briar -and does it Make A Difference?

    I have always ALWAYS heard people say this. BUT then again I have also always heard people argue about whether bourbon needs to breathe or not, and whether neck pours of bottles are actually bad.

    Dad Died Last Weekend And I Inherited His Pipes etc.

    🥺 Did you ever gift your father a pipe? A sad thing I often think about, is how every gift you give your parents will one day come back to you.

    Rebel Moon

    A bazillion years late -but I just discovered this scene/pipe pic. As you might tell from my sweater I have enjoyed 40k too. But Warhammer is a kitchen sink fantasyscifi with literally everything in it. Itself a satire drawing immensely from Frank Herberts Dune , plenty from Starship Troopers...

    What's The Cure for Briar -and does it Make A Difference?

    The Pipe and Tamper podcast, Episode 6 interviewed tobacconist Jim Simon of Hill & Hill Tobacconists of Grosse Point. Right in my neck of the woods of America's mitten. 🧤It's now been open more than 50 years. Here is what Jim said in the segment talking about why older pipes are better, which I...

    Nailing Windscreens

    Well mind you the Windscreen includes a metal rim as well... That means even if you find yourself without a pipe lighter and ONLY a cigarette lighter it's okay. Absolutely no rim char.

    Nailing Windscreens

    I have a Mr. Brog Old Army 21, with a Windscreen nailed to the bowl. Now, after owning it for about 4 years, the nails have started coming up. I can just push them back down though. 🤷🏾‍♂️ I have a mind to replace them with longer ones or even use screws. What types of nails or screw materials do...

    Sick from Smoking??

    🤷🏾‍♂️ I'm very curious. If you were to hand roll some of this tobacco, and smoke it... do you get the same negative effects? Contrast this with taking an old favorite cigar brand. Break up the leaf and put it in your pipe and give it a go. 1. If the hand rolled pipe tobacco cigarillo has no...
