    Keep Your Eye On THIS Auction --- It Will Go Nuclear

    Checked the bidding activity with seller, suspicious to say the least.

    Finally Got Some Real Tobacco...

    Five brothers is some good tobacco. Enjoying the haunted bookshop today. No noticeable nic yet though.

    Finally Got Some Real Tobacco...

    I don't know if it's because I'm a cigar smoker, or not but the ten russians didn't have a nic hit that was noticeable. So far I'd consider all pipe tobacco to be mild.

    Finally Got Some Real Tobacco...

    Just received Haddo's Delight. Haven't had the time to try it yet. I can't put down the ten russians or pirate kake, these baccy's are great. For now, ten russians and pirate kake have usurped gaslight on my favorites list. Didn't see that coming or possible but it happened.

    5 brothers, unbadged unfinished 1970's billiard briar seconds.

    Loving the 5 brothers. Closer to smoking a cigar for me. Wonder how 5 bro. would blend with Ten Russians. Adding cotton boll twist' to the next order, thanks for the info. Warning, don't retro the 5 brothers, fukushima in your nose.

    Figured I better look into the 5 brothers because of the comments made. A quick search on tobaccoreviews has intrigued my interest. This is what I found from a previous review: Looking for that "drugstore" blend? A blast from the past? A bit of nostalgia? Need an ass kicking? These boys will...

    Looks like I'll have to wind down the night with the 5 brothers, or rather the morning if I do indeed sleep. 8O

    Lmfao! This forum is awesome. Having a hard time putting down the ten russians at the moment, still puffin. What bowl is this...? Hell I forgot... :puffy: :laughat:

    Carter Hall is decent, at $4.50 for 1.5oz, I'll order it again. I don't understand the warning labels either with all the bad publicity on t.v., everyone knows nicotine is fun, er um I mean gonna kill us. Here's a list of the goodies, pics weren't clear on some of them, sorry bout that. Carter...

    Mr Brog Lumberjack Dwarf

    Anyone own a Mr. Brog Lumberjack Dwarf poker? How's she fit in the hand? Does it stay cool in the hand? I've never smoked a poker pipe, contemplating buying the dwarf. Any comments are appreciated.

    Chinese Briars

    She's a beauty, can't go wrong with that.

    Great comments. Yes sir, ten russians in my pipe right now. First experience with the russuans and I'd put it right up there at the top of my list with gaslight and pirate cake, a new favorite. Not feeling any nicotine hit though (from any pipe tobacco), probably because I'm a cigar smoker.

    My Old Pal Chubby Rhodesian

    Nice fatty briar. The more I see of fat pipes, the deeper I start to dig into the pocket $. Any pokers in the bunch?

    Look at what the baccy bunny brought early. Having never tried these, I'm hoping they'll be a delightful treat.

    Anyone 3d Printing Pipes, Tampers, Lighter Cases?

    3d printing a pipe stem, quite a bit involved here from cad design to printing which could easily spell failure. Proper print setttings, calibration add to the success of the print. Get those wrong and you're going nowhere. Many hours of learning are required to master 3d printing success...

    Anyone 3d Printing Pipes, Tampers, Lighter Cases?

    Some more info on basic pipe making, very easy to learn (where-as 3d printing has a steep learning curve): An interesting note he makes in the video is that briar can burn out. You're not going to burn out a pipe stone bowl or pipe. A 3d printed pipe with a pipe stone bowl would be much more...

    Anyone 3d Printing Pipes, Tampers, Lighter Cases?

    Here are a couple of videos demonstrating how easy it is to saw/drill/file pipe stone for pipe making. When completed, typically, pipe stone would be hot waxed with paraffin. Don't let anyone fool you, this isn't rocket science and is easy to learn. If you can use a rotary tool, ruler, pencil...
