Unsmokable
After reading the first comment, my suggestion would have been to hand turn a bit through the stem. I would have used a larger drill bit. I have cleared airways in the past by clamping the bit into the jaws of a small pair of vise grips. Then, typically, turn the object to be cleared. I got an... -

Savinelli, Kiko and Kaywoodie
I have gone so far as to use a retort system on some of my estate pipes. I think hot water is just as effective. Micro mesh on my stems to a high polish at least once. Maybe some minor dent raising with a tea candle or other heat source prior to refinishing a stem.- newbroom

I Remember When..........
"Hey, Rosita, come quick! Down at the cantina" Speedy Gonzales I remember back to around 1952 and onward. I lived in NH then. I remember our phone # and no dial. We had switchboard operators, private and party lines. My Gramps smoked Days 'o Work hand rubbed out and put into a cob or something...- newbroom

Why Is HU Directors Cut More Expensive Than Other HU Tobacco Blends?
I've got some Makhuwa and White Horses. I'll definitely get more Horses and looking forward to trying more HU blends. I've got a feeling that they're all going to be worth having to smoke.- newbroom

Sutliff Match ERR in an Ambassador bent bulldog. This pipe's stem has a vulcanite tenon that is screwed into the stem. Sometimes I pull it and everything comes out, but sometimes, I unscrew it and it reveals a threaded metal sleeve. The pipes stummel is really nice. The crown is a full 360 of...- newbroom

Chatgtp
I run away from it. I feel as if it's a machine attempting to learn so that it can dominate. In many ways, I'm sure I'm correct. AI is unavoidable if you're using a computer. The problem as I see it, is knowing that it is there and that it is not human and not necessarily giving you the...- newbroom

***What Are You Smoking, November 2025?***
When I first get up for the day, I typically grab a pipe I've used the day before that has some unburned tobacco remaining (dottle) and touch it off. I often don't remember what was loaded into the pipe and struggle to identify its contents by the remaining flavors. This morning, I had no...- newbroom

How much do you cellar?
I don't 'cellar'. I don't hoard. I don't panic that tobacco will disappear from earth. I do accumulate. My storage methods are basic, simple, and so far, fortunate. Nothing fancy. Re-used glass peanut butter jars, or freebies of containers from tobacco sales. A picnic cooler, old 14 oz. tubs...- newbroom

Recomend Tobacco to a Two-month Newb
When I started, I immersed myself in all things pipes and pipe tobacco, trying to learn as much as I could as fast as i could. I was rolling my own using OHM Bold and thinking, crap, these papers are causing me to have a cough and congestion. I'll go to Walgreen's and get a cob and smoke it...- newbroom
