    A New Process

    Atleast you have a grow season! I'm here in Michigan and got such a cruddy year for growing that I gave up on my crop half way through the year. Too much rain, not enough heat etc. I haven't quite decided, but do plan to use some kind of north American hardwood as I'm located in Michigan and...

    A New Process

    I'll be starting with a 1 pound batch, hopefully I'll get around to it soon, but we did just get snow outside and there's no way I'm doing this indoors! Thanks! Especially when mixing it with tobacco!

    Smart Phones

    that’s what we had growing up, when the power went out we used the old Telly to call and check restoration time/make sure everyone else was ok. That was a hard line into the house and at some points our only contact during strong storms

    Smart Phones

    I’m of the younger generation so I’m used to having a smart phone on me at all times and being accessible by work and family. Plus I use a CGM for my diabetes which links directly to my phone, which in of itself justifies the smart phone, I can check my blood sugar 480 times a day!

    A New Process

    I’ll count you in! I’m expecting good results! I’ll try and document it as much as I can along the way!

    Dr.Grabow Gallery

    I’ve attached a couple pictures of my Doctor Grabow. Does anyone know anything about it in particular? I got it for $7 at an antique store, I reamed it down slightly and cleaned it with ethyl alcohol, polished it with bees wax and now it’s my Daily smoker!

    A New Process

    If you feel so obliged, join me in a new quest - I’m planning on developing a new (atleast to me, and from my research in the realm of tobacco growing/curing/processing new to the industry) was of making a sort of “Latakia Cavendish”. If anyone is interested I’ll post the results as they come...

    Mr.Python, sir can I ask why we are doing this? I’m curious if it had to do with SEO status’

    Estate Pipes

    I collect (if you can call it that) both. Some pipes like my meer or my doctor grabow have had countless outs of smoke through them prior to my using them. They’ve been “conditioned” which takes in my opinion hours upon hours to achieve. As for new pipes, I still get them as it’s fun to build up...

    Oh How I Wish My Pocket Book Was Bottomless

    thanks! It did have a break in it at some point where the stem meets the base but someone repaired it just fine and she smokes great. Only downside is the huge bowl size, I can keep a light for 45 minutes to an hour and still have leaf left to burn

    Oh How I Wish My Pocket Book Was Bottomless

    I have to admit, this is one hobby I love can go up in flames! some of these pipes are just killer though. I was lucky to find one, once upon a time for $35 and the seller didn’t know what they had

    Oh How I Wish My Pocket Book Was Bottomless

    Was out on a date with my wife tonight and spotted this beautiful meerschaum at a local antique store, How I wish I could afford another one. Based on it not having a price tag and everything else in the store was exorbitantly priced I doubt I could have but I thought I’d share with you this...

    Need Help Naming a Blend

    I honestly like all these suggestions too much to choose just 1. I’m definitely writing all these names down for further blends but have chosen Stogie37’s idea of Washington’s Hatchet (pm me your address I can send the sample to) and mso489 I’ve chosen your Iron Ridge name as a brand. (Pm me...
