    Summer Grilling and Chilling

    I only like to cook with gas in the house, I detest electric stoves!

    What Is Your Standard?

    Well, pretty much the same as a woman. Like a woman, the pipe has to look good and feel good in my hands. Like a woman the tobacco has to smell good and taste good. Other than that, I ain't too picky puffy

    Must try G.L. Pease?

    I can't add much to what's been listed. I'm a huge fan of G.L. Pease blends, and of the man himself. Greg is a Master Blender, and a man of many talents. If you can afford it, I'd recommend you buy one tin of all his blends and try them all, in various pipes you own and decide for yourself.

    How Old is Too Old? Prince Albert in a Can!

    Keep the PA and let Pipestud sell the Velvet. You'll probably double or triple your money. I think they're cool as hell just like they are. Great addition for a smoking room.

    Tobacco Smoking Question

    I rarely smoke aromatics. But I keep a jar of 24 Karat and a designated pipe for when I smoke around others. There are some bars in the Woodlands that allow smoking. I get a lot of comments about how great it smells compared to cigs and cigars. Every now and then a girl will tell me about how it...

    Show Us Your Plug Cutting Tool!

    I know this has been a thread on here before, but I think it's been a long while. Might be nice to show newbies what we use. I'll start...

    Backpacker's Churchwarden

    For backpacking I'd recommend a MM Mark Twain cob and a vulcanite churchwarden Forever stem. Both are light and pretty much camp proof, and it all breaks down to just two pieces with a twist of the stem.

    Tongue Bite Aid

    LOL, True enough! But I did it at the bathroom sink. Besides, I didn't really care how it looked because it worked so well. I haven't had tongue bite in years, so no pics now. Sorry I realize the whole exercise seems silly, but it really works well, and most people have all the ingredients in...

    Tongue Bite Aid

    I have mentioned my remedy for tongue bite on here several times. It worked great for me back when I first started smoking pipes when it became an issue, and it's worked well for others. Brush teeth and tongue well with a non-sugary toothpaste, rinse well. Make a paste with baking soda and a...

    Clove Pipe Tobacco Experiment

    I'm not a big clove fan, but I appreciate the endeavor. Just a thought... you could put some in a small piece of cheese cloth and tie it up, then put that in your bag of tobacco. I believe you will get close to the same results without having to pick out the cloves.

    Tame the briar

    I most definitely have a few pipes that smoke certain blends better than any other pipe I own. I also have pipes that smoke most blends as good as any other pipe. I'd say it depends on the pipe, the tobacco, and most importantly the pipe smoker. You won't know the answer till you experiment...

    Stalks?

    When I come across a large vein, I cut it up in small pieces with a small pair of scissors and add it to the bowl.

    New Tobacco for a Beginner

    Given your description of how flakes are smoking for you it sounds like a packing issue, not a tobacco issue. Given your description of what you think you might like to try, I'd bet you would enjoy Plum Pudding puffy
