Please Help Identify This Barling's Make
Hi All, I'm trying to find information about this Barling's Make. There is little in the way of nomenclature. It has the normal cross pattern on the stem, but on the wood it is only stamped Barling's Make and "Benjamin" with the J looking like the number 7. I can't find anything online about it...- tozert

PayPal Finally Got Me, This May Be the End
I got an email from Paypal today. After 17 years, they discovered I sell pipes (and more recently tobacco), and gave me seven days to comply with their legal requirements and $500 merchant gateway fee, and I won't be able to. Pipes are now considered "tobacco products", and even if I take down...- tozert

From Larrysson Pipes
I read in the post about wax drip pipes a statement that Larrysson Pipes is retired. I didn't want to hijack the thread, so I thought it best to start a new one. I don't wish to be over-reacting by jumping on this misinformation, but it's not nice to see an erroneous fact about oneself on a pipe...- tozert

Heya fellas, I have a question concerning my health and I'm wondering if any here know about or have developed symptoms similar to mine.

What Do You Know About This Dunhill Shape?
After failing to find a Dunhill CK shape, I stumbled across a similar shape and bought it. I can't find any information about the history of the shape. It is shape number 460E and it also has the letter C as can be seen in pictures. It is a very small pipe, way too small for me. I'm going to...- tozert

My new Double Reverse Calabash Pipe
I've been a pipe smoker for almost 20 years and a pipe maker for 15. I have smoked all sorts of pipes made from all sorts of materials and have smoked various pipe designs promising a dry and cool smoke. Although I love briar pipes, my daily go-to pipes are gourd calabashes made by Baki... -
Gourd Calabash Repair Question
After two years of being really hard on my Baki gourd calabash, the cork gasket needed replacing. I clean the gourd with pure alcohol about once every two weeks and it has made the cork hard and the cup doesn't seal well. I don't know what kind of glue was used, but it was really tough to remove...- tozert

Why Did You Quit Drinking?
I just finished reading a thread about what drinks go good with a pipe. I noticed within the replies that a few guys quit drinking alcohol. I just quit drinking after a ten year love affair with strong drink. I always drank a big nightcap before bed, it was still a lot for my small frame (I...- tozert

HU tobaccos
I just went to HU online tobaccos to place an order, and was pleasantly surprised to see that the site has had a major face-lift. If you haven't already, I recommend you check them out. I'm not sure if they ship to the states or not.- tozert

I saw a few different cuts at 4noggins but I'm unsure of who the manufacturer is...C&D perhaps? Anyway, if anyone has an recommendation of good blending burley, I would like to know!- tozert

Removing Cake from Meerschaum Chamber
I predominately smoke Virginia leaf in my Meerschaum pipes, and the cake builds up really fast. I usually take a round tipped pen knife and shave off the cake every three or four smokes, once the bowl is cold. I check with my finger to make sure the chamber is back to feeling smooth and clean...- tozert

Wellauer Syrian Latakia
Has anybody tried Wellauer Syrian Latakia? I may have found a small supply of it, but I have heard rumours that some Syrian is not legit. I have never heard of this company so I'm on the fence. Any thoughts?- tozert
