    Bubbling on the Pipe Finish?

    I tried to get a good angle, I couldn't. I circled the parts that are slightly raised now.

    Czech tool on and the TSA

    This I do not know about. You can probably try printing out this list: http://www.tsa.gov/travelers/airtravel/prohibited/permitted-prohibited-items.shtm And then telling them that it is more like a tool than anything else, as it has no sharp or pointed edges - even the dottle digger is dull.

    Bubbling on the Pipe Finish?

    Well, after close inspection of my Hardcastle Royal Bruyere - it has started to bubble, I assume it's from the heat. This is quite upsetting, as I'm sure there is nothing I can do to repair it, unless it all comes off and I try to refinish it with a matching stain. Has this ever happened to...

    Czech tool on and the TSA

    I honestly think they'll try to confiscate it, since it looks like a pocket knife. I'd keep it in the check in luggage.

    Finishing that bowl...

    I've come to learn that I do not like the very bottom of the bowl. When I get to the bottom, it gets very harsh and doesn't taste good at all. I just dump it, I don't mind wasting the 10 cents or so worth of tobacco so that I can avoid nastiness.

    First new tins

    I have no idea, but sometimes I like to go against the caution, I may have said to him, "CHALLENGE ACCEPTED" and pumped my fist into the air with excitement as I purchased a tin.

    The Strangest Thing Happened Today

    I think my Dad and I bonded over tobacco. It was the oddest thing but perhaps the coolest thing to happen as of late.

    Dry tobacco

    I'm interested in knowing too - I noticed that out of all the tobaccos I have in bulk, the C&D Nutty Irishman seems to be drier than the rest.

    Last PAD purchace till after Xmas...I think.

    Nice purchase. I'm partial to the lucite bright stems. In fact, I was looking at the Savinelli Bent Solaria models. Something about the way they look.

    My first REAL smoke

    All I have to say is, I wish I had the tools and the means the first time I tried a pipe. I'm so much happier having the tamper, matches, a few throw away pipes, and lots of tobacco to play around with. I can't wait to try the other blends I got, so far, Lane Limited 1Q has proved to be an...

    Fantastic gentleman gesture. I applaud you my friend.

    PAD & TAD Strike

    It's finally here, after 1 week of patiently waiting. First up is the assortment of pipe cleaners and czech tools. This is the fun part. Two tins of CAO Cherry Bomb, which I have Bob to thank, the Kool-Aid comment made me instantly click purchase. Sillem's Black, which I've heard interesting...
