    What Is a Dried Out Classic Tobacco Worth To You?

    Zero, unless I was collecting tins, but I wouldn't pay over 10. for a tobacco tin anyway. Which is probably why I'm not a tin collector.

    Wild Boar Stew

    Looks delicious! I'm assuming that's a bed of mashed potatoes the meat is nesting in?

    Don't apologize. I was the only one conflicted. Sounds great, post it in the For Sale/Trade. See how it goes. Not sure how many newbies will have 4 tins of 3P to trade you, but you never know till you put it out there. I've had some stuff sell, and some stuff never sell. It's tough all over...

    Can We Talk About Water Glass (Sodium Silicate)?

    Understood. I thought maybe the amount of water just wasn't present long enough to make a difference. So I guess this rules out water flushing these pipes?

    Can We Talk About Water Glass (Sodium Silicate)?

    This is interesting. Why did you choose not to water flush these?

    Ideas for a Vulcanite Stem Soak?

    ... and any material or substance that you don't want gone! Alien blood!

    Ideas for a Vulcanite Stem Soak?

    The OP is not addressing oxidation on the stem. Rather buildup of some substance in the airway.

    Can We Talk About Water Glass (Sodium Silicate)?

    This is so damn funny, because I don't inhale, and I forgot that point, and my entire issue with it is now mute! Problem solved, well done! I'll just go have another drink puffy

    Can We Talk About Water Glass (Sodium Silicate)?

    Yes, I was thinking more about initial smokes and with regards to the bottom third of the bowl, where a lot of pipe repairs take place. It seems to me that the bottom of the bowl would have a high moisture content, i.e. water. And what about those who use the warm water method of pipe bowl...

    Can We Talk About Water Glass (Sodium Silicate)?

    I'll make this as short as possible. I have read many threads and some articles that describe the use of Sodium Silicate as a bowl coating, or for repairing bowls used as a pipe mud. I even bought a bottle of it several years ago but have been hesitant to ever use it. As a scientist, I was...

    To @Old_Newby and @OSOBUCO Apologies to you both. Old_Newby, it's obviously a fine idea, you should run with it. OSOBUCO, you know I love you brother... Having a rough time as of late. That's why I'm selling tins from my cellar, just to pay my damn bills. Pisses me off. Anyway, it's a...

    I understand what your saying. I think maybe I was misunderstood. Of course, everyone has that right, and should sell their tinned tobacco if they so wish, to whomever they wish and for whatever they can. Buying and selling tinned tobacco is not, or was not my issue. Admittedly, most of the...

    Ideas for a Vulcanite Stem Soak?

    Why not just throw a few pinches in a few baggies, find a few newbies and make their day? Remember when I offered to send you a pipe stand when you started out, but you already had one? Well @Old_Newby got it instead. Along with about $200 in well aged tins and some samples of tobacco blends to...

    Well, that's one way to go... Or, you could find newbies on here, have a big heart and just send them some samples or tins, because that's what we do, like I did for you ... I guess the question is, do you want to help out newbies, or do you want to make some money.
