    Amusing Accessory

    I’ve been using this for a while now. Just cleaned and washed an empty tin when I used it up. Perfect.

    Road Town Pipes on eBay Bowl Coating?

    Bought a cheap pipe from Road Town. The bowl is black and it comes off on your finger like soot. I used sand paper to get most of it out, but what the heck? What is it and why do they do that? Why not just leave it natural?

    Pipes With Thin Or Narrow Mouthpieces?

    The typical pipe has a flat, wide stem. I’m wondering if there are pipes that have a narrow stem. I suspect that most have a wide stem so you can clench without it breaking. Just wondering what’s out there in production that has a skinny or more narrow stem.

    Flint Question for Nimrod Style Lighter

    Been trying to win a vintage Nimrod pipe lighter on eBay but no luck. While I’m still working on that I decided to pull the trigger on a China made replica just for the heck of it. Took it about three weeks and arrived at the house today. It’s actually pretty nice. But I’ve got a question for...

    What’s the Deal with HS Studio Pipes?

    Checking them out on eBay. But they seem weird. They aren’t briar as they’re always described as “wood craft”. They look like they’re made in a mold of some kind. And they’re shiny like they’ve been coated with some kind of lacquer. Bowls are black inside. I’ve heard people say they’re fine...

    Aging Eyes and Churchwarden Length Pipes

    EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9) Not sure if I’m actually asking a question here or just throwing this out for discussion but, my eyes aren’t what they used to be. Reading glasses are never outside of arms reach at my age. I started out with several different pipe shapes and...

    Creative Alternatives to Ziplock Bags for Daily Amount?

    I hadn’t thought of that before now. Good point. So my next question would be: if it sat in a tobacco pouch that isn’t air tight for, say, a week. Would the tobacco be too dry to smoke at that point? My pipes can’t really be planned out due to work and other schedules. It may be one a week and...

    Creative Alternatives to Ziplock Bags for Daily Amount?

    I’m wondering if anyone has come up with a creative option for a small amount of tobacco that isn’t the usual ziplock bag option. I can put a small amount in a baggie and if I don’t use it that day and just leave it but it I go a couple of days the smell will start to permeate my backpack. It...

    Let’s See Your Daily Carry Method

    Looking to buy a tobacco pouch that will hold a pipe or two and the necessary accessories. Of course would like it to look nice. Lots of cheap options on Amazon. Some more expensive ones on Etsy. Curious as to what you pack your pipe and tobacco in each morning as you head out.

    Deep Bowl Pipe Screen?

    Maybe goofy question. I have a really nice poker that has a very deep bowl. It’s brand new and I haven’t smoked it yet because I tend to have to relight several times when using a regular depth pipe. i know that when it get down about half way I won’t be able to relight with my lighter. Would...
