    How Does This Happen?

    I admit I like nice looking pipes. I also tend to shy away from really light colored pipes for that reason

    European Pipes And Tobaccos

    They wont brag that it was AS cheap I dont use temu but I do use ali express. Mostly because half the stuff on Amazon in the EU is the same product but double the price. Some of the products are pretty good, some trash. You have to shop carefully. I didnt so much in the US but here it can be...

    European Pipes And Tobaccos

    Cool designs but the thin stuff extending out from the figures would have to go. They would be crazy hard to carve and worse to prevent breaking since you want to use the pipe.

    @gervais Im no expert but I do know on nearly every new pipe I have bought they smoke hotter the first couple of bowls. Obvioulsy, there isnt much cake after that but they often seem to settle in. Maybe it has to dry out some moisture...I dont know. The problem might remedy itself. Great...
