Does Anyone Else do This?
I have a big glass jar, a nice thing with rips running up the sides. It narrows on the bottom and becomes somewhat bulbus at the top with a glass lid and a knob at the top. But inside I have, filled to the brim, dottle which I've been collecting. I'll post a picture sometime to show you exactly...- DeWitt1912

What Happens When You Put the Pipe Down?
I haven't had a puff in four days. Day two, I felt a bit tired, but not too bad. Day three, less tired. Day four, I feel energetic, though I'm still putting the pipe in my mouth a bit for the sake of habit. I really enjoy smoking my pipes. Every once in a while, maybe every six months or so, I...- DeWitt1912

Do different pipe shapes work well, or not so well, with different tobaccos?
I have six pipes, and so far, my choices have been purely for aesthetic reasons when choosing shapes, but I was wondering, do different bowl types lend themselves to better experiences based on certain types of tobaccos? For instance, what might a short wide bowl be good for vs a tall bowl? I...- DeWitt1912

How long to clay and corn cobs last?
Thinking about getting some of these, but I'm not the "disposable" type, so I was wondering how long, if treated well, do these pipes last? Can they last a long time? What would you say is a good way to store a clay pipe to keep it from cracking? Thanks.- DeWitt1912

I should have posted here earlier! Greetings from Japan!
I've already posted a few times in the forums, but I realized I never came over here to say hello to you all. I'm a new pipe smoker--been at it for about a year now, though as a young teenager I was always interested. Back in the day my dad had a friend who smoked pipes and I always enjoyed...- DeWitt1912

Newbie question here, but do Meers retain value?
Pretty much what the title says. I'm wondering if meerschaum pipes, if well cared for, hold their value? I'm thinking on buying a $300-400 eagle claw meerschaum that I can call my "flagship" of pipes, so to speak and I'm looking for justifications to help rationalize the purchase. I'm a man who...- DeWitt1912

Meerschaum Coloring with Spots?
Just saw this was in the Tobacco discussion thread, so moved it here. Is it normal for spots like this to appear? It started out as a translucent spot that started coloring fast, and now there's even a drip stain. I can only guess and say there's a fault in the meerschaum and that area is...- DeWitt1912
