    Which pipe to smoke next ?

    What influences your decision, buttons are different, weight very close, bowl depth same 3/4 x 1 3/8, Cumberland vs ebonite ? I will be breaking it in with Dan Tobac, Sweet Vanilla Honeydew.

    Starting a Pipe Repair and Pipe Making Business.

    Not a easy field to break into, I speak from a little experience. I have been making pipes for 2.5 years and replacing stems for some of the older fellows chewed up stems. It requires a lot of time and work for very little money. I started with a 1940 Atlas metal lathe ( $450) , Nova G3 chuck...

    Kiseru Pipes and Kizami Tobacco

    To me it's more about the process, You have to ball up a pinch of tobacco, light the cedar split on the candle, get it going then take 4 of 5 puffs. Then you also need a bamboo cup to knock the tobacco ash into. Kinda like the tea ceremony thing.

    Leather Pipe Stands

    Another option to the screw rivets would be an old pair of cuff links. People don't seem to use them much anymore, so they can be had for cheap at most thrift stores.

    Making Your Own Pipe?

    I have only made 22 pipes so far, with another 3 in the works. It's very relaxing just focusing on the briar in your hands, shaping, sanding, and just figuring out all the little nuancese of the pipe. I started out with blocks from Vermont freehand. I would highly recommend the experience, it...
