    Beards and Beard Oil

    So I've had a beard off and on over the years. I usually have a goatee during the spring and summer and grow out my beard during the fall and through winter. Sometimes I'll shave it all off and start fresh. This year I've decided I'm going to grow out my beard, though I can't go to long for work...

Chris had these old pipes, I think he called them stemals, in a large jar in his shop. These old pipes were roughly carved about 50-60 years ago and were in different shapes...

    Newest Pipe Purchase

    A few months back I designed a pipe for a pipe carver to make for me. Some of you that watch YouTube and are familiar with the pipe community on there may be familiar with SparkysPipes.
